What Type of Yarn Are You?

I found a cute yarn quiz via Angel Yarns Forum.....and surprise, surprise, I came up as "Merino Yarn" - Merino is my favorite fiber to spin.....and I love knitting with it! (Notice too that the "swatch" they show is purple....how appropriate!) (Be sure to check out Angel Yarns too - they're a fabulous mail order source in Great Britain - especially useful if you want some of the British Yarns!)

What kind of yarn are you?

You are Merino Wool.You are very easygoing and sweet. People like to keep you close because you are so softhearted. You love to be comfortable and warm from your head to your toes.

On to the current status of my projects:

Knitting:

• Parasol socks - I didn't finish the first sock as planned (easily sidetracked I guess!) - I hope to get it done withing the next day or so.
• Finished the Haiku (40% silk/60% merino) Feather and Fan Scarf - I still need to block it
• Almost done with the garter and drop stitch scarf using Noro Aurora
• There are sooooo many projects that I want to do that I don't know where to start!
• I did manage a couple more pattern repeats on the Swallowtail Shawl....I'm not making progress nearly as quickly as I'd like!
  
• I have been keeping my New Years Resolution of finishing at least one previous WIP/UFO every month!
  

Spinning:

• Finished spinning the Brown BFL - just need to ply the last 2 bobbins worth
• Almost finished spinning some "generic" multi-colored blue wool (from Little Barn) - I have very little left to spin - only about a 3 ft. length of roving. I plied 2 full bobbins of it and have at least 2 more full bobbins to do. The final 2 bobbins will be relatively small
• Sent off my final skeins to my downstream "Spin-to-Knit" secret pal (sponsored by Interweave) last Thursday and sent the samples of the Jan. and Feb. skeins on to Shannon Okey, the author of the book, "Spin to Knit".
• I'm very excited - I got a message from my new upstream secret pal - she's just sent a package to "tide me over" until she completes the "real" skein she intends to send me. That's sooooo sweet....and totally unnecessary! (My original upstream pal had to drop out due to health issues - I'm keeping her in my thoughts and prayers.....hoping she'll have a speedy recovery!)
