Other Obsessions: {Handspun} some hand dyed Panda and new BFL!

It's much easier to spin than to knit with a newborn. I can just wear him in my ring sling or Boba wrap and just go. So last week, I finished the panda roving I dyed back in January. 

I originally wanted this to be sock yarn but the twist didnt come out tight enough. 

Hopefully, this is enough for a lace shawl. I plied with metallic thread so that the sunshine color really gets maximized.  

for my next project, I took out this top by Yarn Hollow. It was gifted to me when the Ashford Kiwi group of Ravelry did a swap fore than 2 years ago! So the top was a bit felted from just sitting there in my spinning closet but it was still fun to spin!
