Pennsylvania Alpaca


Finally got to ply up the Pennsylvanie Alpaca that I bought a few summers ago when I visited my BFF, Lori.  I ended up with about 476 yards of fingering weight yarn.  It should be enough to knit up the Lazy Day Lace Shawl pattern I found on ravelry.com.  I love the chocolate brown.  As you can see, I had to improvise with some alternatives for bobbins.  I was asking everyone I knew for coffee cans, oatmeal and bread crumb containers and even the paper towel rolls.  They will come in handy later for spinning up the three pounds of Rambo that I still haven't started.
