Just wanted to share some pictures. Trying to get more of my homespun in projects, I want to really use 75% of all my yarn before I purchase anymore. Hope you guys are having a great week. Happy February.

Oh Ron, tell me how you manage that!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a fatal attraction to fibre lol.
Yes Andy the hat looks great as does the kilt have you knit something for under it or are you wearing it in the true Highland fashion lol.
