Over The Moon

What an eventful month February has been! I released three patterns, went to Stitches West, started making a business and marketing plan. I also turned a year older and this year my brother actually got me a birthday present before I got his (his birthday is two months after mine). Thanks dude! You got me exactly what I wanted. I suspect that the birthday wishlist post, several facebook messages with links attached, and nagging may have helped.

He got me two moonrover mystery batts. You can never go wrong with moonrover. Her work and color choices are always lovely. She has stores on etsy and bigcartel. There is also a moonrover group on ravelry.

I've been a bit lax in the knitting department. Fear not! I have been knitting... it just so happens that all my projects are a bit involved. So without further ado, I give you my hand spun cowl.

I bought the 2 ounce "mystery" batt from Moonrover. I knew that I would love it even without seeing it. I'm calling the color way Skyway.

It only took me an evening to spin it into a 218 yard single.

And another week for the cowl. The color progression makes it seem like a landscape. I love it!

Too bad today was 105 F/ 40.5 C. I can't wait until it is cool enough to wear it during the day.

I bought a second mystery batt as well. I'm calling this color way Sunset.

It spun up so quickly and easily. Yum.
