I swear I haven't completely neglected my knitting for my wheel, but I have neglected almost everything but Christmas knitting. And, of course, I can't show you that. (Sorry, Mom.) I'm going to get some work done on Madli today, so maybe I'll have a progress photo sometime this week. Instead, I'll show you some of my freshly spun yarns.

This was spun from "Pinedale" merino. It's a dark grey-green with rose specks. I spun a little thicker than I originally intended, it's about a fingering-DK weight and I have a little over 100 yards. I'll probably have about 200 yards when finished spinning and I'll most likely make a small lacy scarf of some sort.

This is a very bright yellow (brighter than the picture) using Buttercup Yellow Wilton's cake icing dye on Bluefaced Leicester. I've navajo plied it and hope to have enough to make socks. If not, I'll dye something else so I can make really obnoxious striped socks for around the house.
