I wound my handspun into a ball using my nostepinne.
I keep trying to cast on for socks but it’s not working … Does this yarn want to be socks? Should I keep trying for socks or try something else? It’s fingering weight, approx 400 yards.
Hmm… decisions, decisions.
Any thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas? (Giving it away is not an option. 
)
Drat! I was gonna say I’d be willing to sacrfice and take the yarn off your hands.
Maybe a small lace shawl? Like Ishbel or something of that nature?
I, also, would vote for a small shawl. I used a similar yarn for Aeolian and love it.

maybe it needs to marinate a bit in the stash before it decides what it wants to be when it grows up!
