I have spun quite alot of wool fibres into yarn now on my little drop spindle, and so i thought i would knit myself some snazzy socks with some of it. This variagated yarn was made by spinning a length of lilac and cream alternately. Below are the first pairs of socks knitted with eyelash wool and also some vintage orange wool. I also made some purple eyelash yarn socks and they disapeared before i could scan them also? I have to add that these also were snaffled by my 2 daughters!
