8/23 – At this point, singles for both halves of this project are done. I think I’m going to ply on my e-spinner due to some foot issues I’m having that may or may not be related to treadling?

While this spin was originally going to be for socks, I love this fiber and these colors too much to relegate them to my feet. I think this is going to need to be a shawl or maybe even incorporated into a sweater somehow.
