I’m thinking of a jumper for myself, with this yarn held double with some mohair/silk laceweight that I’ve been hanging onto for awhile now. It was just waiting for the right inspiration…

"Opened up a 1977 MXR Dyna Comp to clean the death foam and test it out. I found a surprise underneath the circuit board!"

First all the bought yarns.

I don't really know what to do with all of these.

The green one is the rest of a recently finished project.

The blues on the left are plant dyed and unwanted to make a dress, but it's not working out, so maybe a bunch of warm long socks? (For me and my husband)

Then a bunch of lace cotton I bought second hand for shuttle lace, but I'm not good enough yet to deal with this tiny yarn (but I might be able to use it for beaded crochet projects.

The petrol cake could be a big knitted lace project?

The brown/yellow/green yarn has no project yet

And scrabs that are over from various other projects

On to the spinning folder I have a concrete plane for. The two rovings will be spun into a 4 ply (with each two singles of each roving) and knitted I to a sweater

And all the small paper bags contain 10g of test roving from different fiber animals or sheep breeds. I want to spin them into a yarn and make a 10 stitch blanked (well probably something like a 25 stitch blanked so I can make a square with each 10g and make some sort of test fiber blanked) I'll also add the cotton I have there and maybe even some of the flax

Now the spinning fodder I don't have a plan yet for.

I coukd mix the sour German merino (white right top) and grey kid mohair together, and maybe dye the merino beforehand in some nice cold jewel tone (maybe dark blue or petrol?)

The rust to grey rowing probably wants to be a lace shawl

And the rest is still waiting for some inspiration...

And now to all the nad spun stuff!

Top right is hand spun from @swords-n-spindles that I got for a scrap project (that keeps changing, so no real progress.) first I wanted to make a bunch of squares (crochet, woven and knitted) to then sew together to a cardigan, now I think about some sort of hexagon cardigan. Because making so many squares is fucking annoying and not enjoyable at all (for me at least) In the bottom right you can see all the squares I made already...

Top left is my mix of handspun. Some scraps, some experiments and a rest of my husbands sweater.

And bottom left is some very fine lace yarn. That is a bit scratchy, and therefore I don't know what to do with it yet... But it's my first ever unwashed fleece to yarn, so I really want to use it....

And my two ongoing projects

Rose bud lace and some sort of shrug... I probably should finish the rosebud spinning first, protecting yarn from moths is easier then the voluminous rolags...

And that's it! (There is a small drawer with fabric, but because it's so little and mostly scrabs or mock up fabric, I don't really count it)
