Here is a pic of the Italian cocoons. The white are really large and to other two are just lovely.

I have given up on the Mobius for now. I got the cast-on  down but the patterns I found don't work out the way I like. The one I really liked reversed itself the wrong way. Half the scarf was in stockingett stitch and the other half was in garter, on the same side. Nope, that won't do.  So instead of driving myself nuts trying to work it out. I have decided to get the instructions from someone else who has already gone nuts from doing this technique.

I went to the library and got interlibrary loan to find the 2 books by Cat Bordhi. I expect they will be here in a week or so and then I can get this itch scratched.  I want to make a scarf with some of the silk that I have spun. I will dye it first though. In the meantime, Back to the baby blanket from hell.
