FO : Knit Night Hat and Gloves

No... you're not having deja vu... I've done it again....

Another set of Knit Night hat and gloves. This time in a skein of handspun, and this time for me. With all the stress of the car, and the chaos that surrounded all the logistics, I just haven't been in the mood to work on lace - which other than my socks is the only thing I have on the needles right now.

So I went stash-diving (not difficult now that it's been reorganized), and came up with a skein of Mom's handspun. I didn't have any in worsted, which the pattern was written for, but it wasn't hard to adjust it for the sport-weight handspun.

It was a beautiful skein of SW BFL... (fibre from Nest), just full of colour. I didn't see the true beauty of it until I got it outside in the natural light.

There was about 280 yards and it was just enough for a nice slouchy hat and the mitts. When I made the first Noro one, I was certain the pattern would be perfect for hand spun... and I wasn't disappointed.

And no... you're not seeing things. My hair is quite a bit lighter than last week. I'm in the process of bleaching it down so I can do something really fun with it.... stay tuned!
