I wrote this pattern for those of you looking for a small project for your first batch of home spun worth knitting up. I had several yarns before this one that were not suitable for display, or my knitting needles. (it can always be used for stash yarns too, and a great quick gift knit)

The gauge is approximate and this pattern is meant only to be a guide to get you started knitting with your own yarn as soon as possible. The finished yarn does not have to be perfect. There are boutique yarns with slubs and uneven weights that are now in stores and becoming popular. You can knit with your own yarn and be trendy and fashionable while still perfecting your spinning techniques.

I spun this yarn with Solitude Wool Roving, Romney Lamb, Color, Natural that is 99.9% Romney with silk thrums in it for just bit of color.
