I'm not sure I'd be able to do anything with it other than place it beside my bed and stroke it lovingly now and then.

The sheep are looking very dapper in their trim little coats. <BR/><BR/>This is why I refuse to engage any further in the fiber arts. Knitting leads to spinning and dying and weaving and before you can say fiber addiction I'll be living in my son's tree house to make room for all the fiber.

I thought it was just Clumsy Me and my equally-math-challenged Daughter who did that sort of thing. And we're the acrylic-Grandma's-favorite-shawl types, not (yet?) the Icarus types. (I am in awe).
