Ooooo Shiny

I've kind of lost my knitting inspiration lately. Not sure if it's just the busy summer, hot temps or what so there's not much progress to show on the knitting front. Luckily the spinning has been going well and I've just finished spinning up a merino tencel blend from Susan's Spinning Bunny.


I love the way it's so shiny and smooth -- perfect for summer spinning and knitting. I spun this into my first 3 ply sock yarn. I've Navajo plied before but never did a true 3 ply. I've heard that a 3 ply makes a really strong and long wearing sock yarn. We shall see. Hmmm, now to pick the perfect sock pattern -- any ideas?
