Yarn yarn

I wouldn't like to give the impression that my entire life is now devoted to the pursuit of crochet flowers, so here's something else I've been working on. It's a kid mohair yarn. I featured the spinning process a couple of weeks ago.













This macro shot shows it in all its lovely fluffiness. Given the incredibly cold weather we've been having lately, I could knit it up sooner rather than later. I think I'll keep it simple. There's not a lot of point working with fancy stitch patterns when the yarn itself has so much to say. Besides, my other current knitting project is lace. How simple is simple? Maybe even a plain garter stitch. I'll see how it looks when I cast it on.
