One challenge to the next

The Tour de Fleece is over and I feel pretty good about what I accomplished. I succeeded in my challenge, which was to enjoy spinning. I really did enjoy it and the last yarn I came out with wasn't half bad.

Now we're on to the rechristened Ravellenic Games. I picked the Leyfi sweater from Interweave Knits Fall 2010 as my Team Romi project. Long-time blog followers will know that I am terrible at finishing sweaters. I've had the yarn for this one sitting around for years so it's high time I knit it! Naturally, I swatched, but not very well - I didn't swatch in the round, and I didn't swatch large enough. I ended up starting over, but I'm happy with what I've got now - so far, at least!
