Test shot

I’m just setting up to photograph some skeins. I did a test shot on the eBay bargain silk laceweight that arrived this morning:

Luscious!

Whoops

I’m off to a late start today, which is a problem as I have a packed agenda. I was woken by the postie, bringing me my laceweight silk. Oh, it is gorgeous! Just exactly the colours that I would have wanted. It will drive me nuts if it stripes or pools… and I will be wishing that I had that perfect yarn that shades from one end to the other. It will make for a great practice run, though.

But I must not cast on yet!

We are in Finisher/Completer Mode now.

I undertake to complete at least two of the projects on the needles before casting on again. These are most likely to be the Clapotis V 1.0 and the Hedera Socks. Least likely are the Mixed Recipe Purple Socks. That Damn Shawl will make slow progress concurrently with whatever else is happening.

No photo of this yarn just yet - I have loads to get through today. Just LOADS.

I’ll just take it out and stroke it again… before I get started…
