Blue Wool

Hand spun and plied. It looks nice. Feels soft. About 100 yards. But now...the same old question, "What to make with it?" Family is about all scarfed out. Maybe a cowl. Or is that too much like a scarf?

First I washed all the vegie matter and sheep poop from the fleece. (Sheep are dirty creatures. I couldn't believe the brown smelly fleece delivered by the UPS man, turned white with just some hot, hot water and Dawn dish detergent. ) No carding necessary. Just a little pulling to loosen the locks and it spun up nicely. My spinning isn't great. After plying and setting the yarn with hot water and a bit of thwacking, I like it. It's very primitive looking - thick and thin spots.
Now the question "What to make with it?"

Yarn made from a white t-shirt

It is an idea I had never considered - yarn made from a t-shirt. After I read about it on Ravelry, however, I had to give it a try.

Thankfully, I have men in the family who have drawers full of t-shirts. Using a rotary cutter and mat, I could easily cut the shirt according to the internet directions. From one shirt I got a continuous strip of white fabric; about half an inch wide and 65 yards long. Giving it a gentle stretch made it curl up on itself.

Now the question, "What to make with this T-yarn?
