Well, the cardigan was actually done back in early 2005 and the shawl and scarf took about two weeks around last Christmas and New Years, so the knitting load was spread out.

Pictures are just being posted all at once since I had to borrow a camera and then find time to resize and post them. :D

I'm in the minority on this forum, but I actually
like Homespun. I knit English with my yarn held between my thumb and forefinger and don't have much of a problem with it bunching. I have recently been experimenting with the wrapping the yarn around my fingers method, and while it works great for smoother yarns, I can't do it with the Homespun. That being said, I probably wouldn't make a sweater out of it, but for things like hats, scarves, shawls, ponchos, and blankets I like the texture and softness of the Homespun.
