I know, the post title is not original! Just to remind you and me that we don´t have that much time left to make presents.
Today I will show all the steps from rovings to shawl.
First the two wool braids, dyed by me.The left one is blue faced leicester and the right plain German domestic sheep.
Then the one ply on the spinning wheel.
And then the finished object, a shawl with one detail below.
It was an enjoyable project and I learned a lot during the spinning.
Next is a small shawl I knitted from a sock yarn that I had dyed some time ago.
Maybe that one will become a Christmas present for someone (dear sis, don´t worry not for you!)
I will go back to my knitting now as I have had some special requests ( not only from my sis but from my niece too, like mother, like daughter I would say!)
I wish you a peaceful first Advent.

I like the blue shawl but the other one, euh, let's just say, euh, I am lost for words !! Not my cup of tea as they say here !!
Thanks God there is Amazon for all these presents that I can't make, and all the others !!
Lots of love

I love to see your whole process! And your shawl is amazing.
The blue shawl is just beautiful, not to mention soft and cuddly!
