A Quick Summer knit

While at last weekend’s fiber festival I purchased some new yarn from Winter Wind Farm’s Romeldale (CVM) sheep. It was so much fun going and seeing the different sheep breeds and then finding yarn from those exact same sheep to purchase.

As you can see I couldn’t resist the urge to cast on a scarf I have been eyeballing for awhile. It’s Jane Richmond’s Mustard Scarf though obviously not in mustard. I haven’t had much time to knit on it but I am hoping it will be a quick summer knit and this weekend I have plenty of driving I have to do, I’ll tell you more about it on Monday, so maybe I will get some knitting done. I should clarify, I won’t be driving but in the car. Anyway the yarn is such a dream to work with. Like so many other things I am discovering that local products from family farms are really nothing at all like mass produced items, even yarn.
