My vast hoard of yarn includes a few snippets of very old wool, given to me by my Grandma. One of these is the gorgeous lavender pebble-dashed bouclé seen here, which is now all but used up. It must be at least fifty years old. Good thing I hung on to it huh? Always a sensible thing to do.

I did (and do) intend to make another pair of these, using the leftover wool purchased for my Fair Isle Thistle Wristwarmer’s and Tam o’Shanter. I’ll add them as a project on Ravelry very soon.

OK, so my original plan was to see how far I could take the 10 balls of Jamieson’s Spindrift, but I was distracted by the bouclé.
