Re-Claiming

One of the yarns I bought last weekend was a half finished project.  A sweater, by the looks of it, neglected and unloved, with a couple other random balls of the same yarn.  I used this same yarn in my first attempt at lace.  Yarn this pretty doesn't deserve to languish half-finished, for all eternity. 
 
So I set about to reclaiming the yarn. 
 
I ripped out the sweater pieces.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I gave everything a nice cool bath. 
 
I hung it all up with a towel providing gentle weight, to straighten out the kinks. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I wound everything into new balls. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I have 800 fresh yards of pretty yarn, ready for something new. 





 
Today it is all about giving pretty yarn new life.
