Handspun Foliage

Yarn: Handspun by Frances
Needles: Size 9
Pattern: Foliage by Emilee Mooney on Knitty

The yarn (above) was a nice wool, fairly evenly spun at about a worsted weight. I enjoyed the pattern - it was really quick to knit up, especially after the shawl of doom.


Frances was a good sport and modeled the hat for me, despite the 90+ degree day.

I also finished another pair of the cabled gloves (in hot pink! I still need photos) and another hat out of handspun by Frances, which I will take pictures of and post soon.

I'm currently working on a pair of socks for my mom's birthday (which was in August...) and am hoping to have them done by October 16th at the latest. They're going alarmingly quickly so far, though, which is a good sign.
