Victory is MINE!

That's right, folks. I finished the Tour de Fleece in time.

Looks good, right? That's only half of the finished project- the other half was still resting on the bobbins. It's roughly 1200 yards of worsted weight, six-plied.

I had initially intended to do it as a four-ply, but at four plies, it was a sport weight:

Berry Patch- 4ply

So, six it was.

I know, I should have posted it on Sunday, but these pictures were taken under my new lighting. So, I've sacrificed a little timeliness for quality.

In any case, I can proudly don the following:

I've always liked yellow.

  2. That is amazing. Your single ply must have been a thread. Really nice yarn.
