Spinning Stuff

I did a bit of spinning last night while watching Battlestar Galactica (please tell me I'm not the only person who's favourite character is Starbuck?)

Anyway, here's what I've done so far out of what I think is 400gm rainbow coloured handpaint.

It might be more than 400gm, I forgot to weigh it.

I'm going to ply this with the same 22 micron merino in a solid blue and it's going to be another jumper for Miss Brittany. I don't know whether it will be a jumper this year or next year, but it will be one eventually!

If I get it done quickly and it knits to gauge, I'll use the Moggy Mania pattern without the colourwork. If it doesn't knit to gauge I'll use the same raglan jumper plan from Knitting in the Old Way and work it up in the proper gauge to suit the yarn.

I'm showing my age- I used to watch that show when I was in junior high and I had a fierce crush on Starbuck.

I think the reason so many people hate the new Starbuck is because they made her a woman, but she's still almost as butch as the original. It's a shame that so many people can't get past that because I like seeing a strong (occasionally flawed) female character for a change.
