First finished project for 2012!

My first finished stash-buster knit project started & finished this year! This is a lace cowl made from Handspun silk/cashmere that has been in my stash a few years. I still have enough to make a second cowl or a pair of mitts, and more of the fiber to spin too. It's incredibly soft & slippery, love the feel of it! I had thought it was camel/silk but when I looked at my spinning fibers found I was wrong, that's a more yellow-tan than this (and I haven't spun any of that yet).

On the needles now is a hat for RJ (not a stash buster) and a vine lace scarf (stash buster of Merino/silk)
