WIP: Skein Challenge and Baby Blankets

Well I’ve almost finished with my 8 skeins by this Friday challenge.  I just have to fill up the rest of this bobbin and do one more to complete my task!  Phew!

The reason for the mad rush to spin up so much yarn is because I have a vendor show at the Victor Arts & Crafts festival on Saturday.  I wanted to add some freshly spun up alpaca dyed in fall colors since the trees are at peak right now in WNY.

My second project is a baby blanket for my boss.  They are expecting in December.  Since they chose not to know what sex the baby will be I’m working up this lime green and purple stripe blanket.  With all the spinning I haven’t made much progress but so far it’s 80 stitches wide and 42 rows long.
