A new year, a new resolve.

I don't know whether it's the weather where I'm at (cold, wet, wretched), or whether I'm on the verge of insanity, but I've been knitting and spinning up a storm (do forgive the reprehensible pun).

I've decided to spin for a new vest--Cheryl Oberle's Celtic Lattice--and I'm also working out some stash on a EZ style guernsey of my own device, with Priscilla Gibson-Roberts' Knitting in the Old Way for support.

This is the first skein I've finished so far for the main pattern color. It's a roving from Scarlet Fleece, in their colorway "Popsicle". I've spun it on my Schacht Matchless wheel and Navajo-plied it to keep the color separations distinct. I'm going to pair it with a dark natural brown handspun for the background.

Progress reports will follow!
