I have completed Clue 4 of the Secret of the Stole ii. I have also discovered that I enjoy knitting lace. It had always intimidated me in the past but now I am looking for new lace projects to knit. I am not sure what I will do with the stole when I am done with it. I am not really a stole kind of girl but I might just wear it to the grocery store or something like that. I think it would look nice with a turtleneck and some khakis. I might give it away too. I just don't know yet. I have started Clue 5 so I am not too far behind.
I really haven't spun much at all. I had spun twice (one of those two times was for maybe, maybe ten minutes) before I got my wheel. I really like my wheel and I really enjoy spinning. I have spun a little everyday since I got it on Monday. I could really tell a difference between Monday night spinning and what I spun up yesterday and this evening. I think this bobbin might even be worth trying to ply. The first bobbin I think I am just going to put it in a hank and keep as a memento from my first spinning on my wheel. I noticed a few pieces of grass and stuff that I missed when I was spinning it but oh well.

Your stole is going to be beautiful! Congratulations on working through the tough part. By the way, if the finished stole needs a home, I know just the candidate...(pick me, me, me) LOL
The stole looks good! I would wear it, even to the grocery store... you put that much work into something so beautiful, you will want to show it off!
Your munchkins are adorable. I also signed up for sss2, but I've been too busy spinning to knit it! your SSS2 looks grand, so does your bobbin. My 1st hank is a memento as well. Yarn barf. Are you on ravelry?
