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.

Your things are just lovely! :D

I'm in that minority group that likes Homespun, too. I knit several long and wide scarves out of it for Christmas presents. Using large needles, they knit up so quickly, and I didn't have any problems knitting with it. I love the soft squishy feel of the finished products, and the colors are so rich. :-)
