Notes

I love how this whole project has turned out.

Great pattern! After a few repeats it’s memorized and you can work on your project without constantly consulting a pattern.

Great Fibre! It has such rich colour, softness and wonderful bounce. The long staple length on this Blue Faced Leicester made it really easy for me as an intermediate spinner to make a very fine thread that didn’t tangle when I was chain plying the yarn.

Although it took a long time to spin (about a month) and crochet (more than 2 weeks), the colour changes kept me looking forward to what’s next and I enjoyed the whole process through and through.

This is blocking now and is about 6 feet accross the top edge of the triangle. I can’t wait to snap some pictures after it has dryed.
