UFO's in April

Ok I just got my 8's (circ) freed from dd's skirt (yay!) and can now start something else!

As of April, I have a BIN full of yarn (rubbermaid, stuffed full).

Bleached recycled sari silk. 3 lbs. (will make and then "tie dye")

HI!
I love that bleached sari silk! It's really pretty, I can't wait to see what happens when you dye it I bet it will be even more gorgeous. (if that's possible)

Happy Knitting,
Maura

Thanks for your comment Maura (yay my first!) I am really excited to knit it too, but I have so many things it's hard to know where to start! I did start on the turquoise soy silk and did my first lace pattern... so I am in search of a project for the silk if you have any suggestions!
