THE NAKED DISTAFF

Apparently spiders disapprove of naked distaffs.  I don’t know how long it would take them to finish covering it, but I ended the effort early.

I got some Christmas knitting done over the past few weeks.  The multicolored scarf was knit from a gift skein from Patti.  The skein, Fiesta ballet is half superfine alpaca and half tencel in the aster color.

The other scarf was spun from a gorgeous batt Audrey gave me plus some yummy silk.  Both are variations on the Old Shale or Feather and Fan patterns.
