All Mine

When I went to my fiber stash to determine which roving would be turned into my first “real” spinning project, I selected 4 ounces of BFL that had been around for awhile. The packing slip was dated 3/24/08, which must have been right after I bought my first wheel, the Symphony. The vendor, Artric Fibers, is still on Etsy, but it seems they only sell spun yarn now.
After spinning the fiber onto two bobbins, I thought that I should also use the singles for my first attempt at plying. Fortunately, a friend pointed out that plying would “muddy” the colors. I decided, instead, to knit the singles into an infinity cowl.
Since I had spun the yarn, I figured that I should also “design” the pattern. Here’s my “All Mine” cowl:
