Well, here are the two colors I've been working on to make a couple of baby hats for the owner of Gracie, the sheep the free wool came from. I also spun up some of the natural color of the wool to knit it into stripes. Both colors were achieved with Kool-Aid--Berry Blue, and Fruit Punch with Lemonaid. Now I've started knitting-but its a struggle cuz I'm not to great at it. If I get enough knitted up I'll post that next week. I definitely prefer preparing the wool and then spinning it over actually knitting it.
