The fiber is FatCatKnits Day's End "Fire on the Water", 3.6oz Polwarth (my new favorite fiber base).
This yarn is so springy, and poofy, it was hard to keep it in place. I've got ~ 400 yds of it.
I think I will knit a Jeweled Cowl with it, without the beads, and with less yarn, but nothing is carved in stone.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Interesting how the green becomes so dominant in the yarn when it didn't seem to be in the fibre. Lovely spinning.
Polwarth is in my top 3 favorites too. :) And everything's made better with Ginny's colorways!
so bright and happy!
I like the spun version better than the original fiber colorway. The bright colors really do look like beads!
You'll have to share sometime what it is about Polwarth that you like so much and why it is not commercially seen too often. I think that cowl is the perfect pattern for this yarn ~ you have such a great eye.
Jeweled cowl will be lovely in that! It doesn't need beads, those colors are the real jewels.
Beautiful!
Such a lovely spring colour.
What beautiful colours!! I hope you have had a lovely weekend too!!
Gorgeous yarn!
I think I want to start spinning. I'm blaming you for that... your handspun is so gorgeous.
Anyway, there's no way I'll be able to catch up with everything, but I hope you, dogs and family are all well.

Your yarn reminds me of candy, delicious. I hope I can get to my wheel soon.
Enjoy your weekend.
Great yarn! I think it would definitely work for Jeweled Cowl, but I can't help but think it would make a cute, colorful baby item, but that's probably because our little one will be arriving in approximately 5 weeks! :-) (sjn821)
