Really pleased how this yarn turned out. Fibre is a Merino/bamboo/baby Alpaca blend in the Tryion Lanniste rcolourway from Cat and Sparrow. 200m DK weight. After i have squished it for a while and rubbing it lovingly on my cheek, i'm thinking hat!

Well what will 2017 bring me wonder... well first off finally giving andean ply a go. Checked the pictures in Jillian Moreno's 'Yarn-i-tec-ture' but it was on the wrong hand. Shame my sunday brain couldn't reverse it as normal since i am a leftie but will give it a go anyway!

Some lovely fluff from Cat and Sparrow in the Tyrion Lannister colourway. Busy spinning singles to make a two ply. Suspect it will be a DK ish. Sid is helping by modelling the label.
