As I mentioned yesterday, I finished the Copperhead 2 yarn over the weekend. I wound one skein from each bobbin:
...and the dime shot:

I need to take a breather from cotton yarn for a while. So I'm looking at the stuff in my queue to see what appeals to me. In the meantime, I have the Plumthorn fiber from Pigeonroof Studios to spin, so that will keep me occupied until I decide.
Gee, maybe it's time for socks again! Or a quilt...
