Handspun Percy Shawl
This was my first supported spindle handspun yarn. I took a class in February with Ms. fleegle, and made this with one of her batts. It is merino with a little glitz in it, and I got 810 yards of 2-ply from 2.3 oz. It is perhaps the best and finest yarn I have spun to date.
The pattern is Percy Shawl and may be downloaded for free. Some of the pattern is actually real knitted lace, with a pattern on both sides, instead of simple purling back. Keeps you on your toes! I used about 610 yards of the ball.
