Thanks very much for that! Just started to learn how to spin, so these patterns will be very useful for all that wonderful yarn I will hopefully create!

LOL, would you believe that just last night I was petting the bananiere yarn I bought from you at Crafting Patch and trying to think of what I’ll make with it? I also realized that I’ve never actually worked with handspun yarn before, so I’m glad to have your suggestions until I get a feel for the inherent peculiarities of handspun yarns.

I like to spin “energized singles” and I love making that yarn into knitted kerchiefs and coffee cup cosies. The skew of the yarn makes for interesting texture, and the colours stand out so well that way. Also, I love the Calorimetry pattern! I’m glad you suggested that one – now I’m off to look at the others you mentioned!
