It’s really pretty. I like the two colors plied. How did you ply them (spindle?)? And what weight-ish is it? Fingerless gloves, maybe?
I plied them with a spindle (don’t own a wheel), and the weight is chunky/bulky.
I was hoping I had enough for a hat, but I’m a little short I think.
I only have a spindle, and am a new spindler. Plying with a spindle will be my next new trick to learn!
I have a free pattern on my blog for chunky piano mitts; that might work out for your yarn if you’re interested.
It’s a little tricky to ply, but not as bad as making the singles, at least for me. I’ll check out your pattern. I also have the Maine Morning Mitts pattern — one of them should work!
