ideas?

Hi,
I'm a beginner knitterand was given natural hand spun DK wool. It's a beautiful cream color and I have about 250 yards. It's kind of special yarn and I'm looking for some ideas if what to do with it. Thanks!

Why not look around for patterns for hats, mitts or something small like that that uses about the yardage you have. If you're really beginning to knit, you might try knitting the pattern with a commercial yarn first. Then if you like the looks of it (and with the extra experience) go ahead with your lovely handspun. Lucky you!
