To the right is some luscious merino top hand dyed by Susan at Yarnorama. She posted this pic (which I shamelessly borrowed) on Ravelry to announce her new Colorway of the Month. She is dyeing fiber and yarn each month in an original colorway and making them available for purchase. This is the January offering and It is aptly named Awakenings. Since I am newly obsessed by knitting with unspun fiber, I thought I would give hers a try.

I am going to get started with this this weekend and I am thinking maybe a simple shawl for this loveliness. I might do a triangle that I can leave unblocked because I am not sure how blocking unspun fiber will go, and I am not ready to wing it for something bigger. Best to just let the muse take me where it wants to go, yes?
