Cormo

The cormo and I are not getting along. It is VERY tender. I have tried spinning it from the grease, from the lock , washed in the lock and washed and combed. I am getting a yarn with personality from all of these, not the smooth yarn I was hoping for. Very neppy once it was washed. Not sure why.

So I put it away. I am back on the second bump from Lisa Souza. I am also knitting away on the three top projects now (shawl, Eris and the gansey). I need to start a project on a bigger needle - my hands are beginning to cramp - Eris is on #4 needles, but the gansey and shawl are below 3mm. Socks are on 2mm. I need to have more variation in my knitting. I was going to start an aran - but the skein is too big for my swift and I haven't decided how I am going to deal with it. Also, I am not in the mood to design an aran right now - I have a gansey already going.

Not sure what to do about it all right now.
