I see the Froot Loops yarn being used in a fair isle design with the main color being a solid …blue, perhaps from the variegated yarn….Wonderfully cheery, whatever you do with it.
Those double thick mittens, BTW, are stranded, not double knit, I think and they look like a project I will have to put on my to make list. Thanks for sharing.

The Fruit Loop yarn is great!

I love the blue of your handspun – those mitts are beautiful. I must be missing some info — I thought double knitting meant 2 strands of yarn…

How soon they forget their sugar products….It’s FROOT Loops, not fruit loops. I’m just sayin’. And WHEN, WHEN are you going to sell/give/whatever me some handspun? Sheesh! Oh yeah – I don’t think it looks like Froot Loops at all. I think it’s springy and bright and lovely.

that’s so funny, my thought was the same as carrie’s: Sweet tarts! love the socks, but that skein you hand-dyed? oh, it’s lovely, too! how do you get that blue roving spun so finely? bet you’ve spun for a great while, it looks so uniform!

The handspun is gorgeous! Is that purple-y blue stuff laceweight? I’m jealous!

That Romney is a gorgeous shade! And I can’t believe how fine you’re spinning it. No matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to spin fine singles. It’s a mental block. Anyway, the handspun looks great knitted up. It’s hard to stop knitting with handspun once you start isn’t it? You just want to keep going to see how it’ll look next. Beautious!
