Knitting/Spinning Updates

I have been doing very well on the Cinnamon Wave Wrap. Or at least I was before it got so hot and humid. In consideration of the heat and the fact that it makes knitting wool very unattractive, I cast on and started the Shapely Tee. (See swatch a couple posts ago.) Cooler yarn, DK weight. small needles, my kind of knitting.
I also dug out some silk caps I bought a couple years ago. I was inspired by something I read on an early column at knitty.com. I spun up some of the silk I had already separated and drafted and it spun nicely. I want to get that split, drafted and spun now. I'll have to get some pictures soon.
I think I will sign off and get working.
