mobius mess up


So, one mobius was finished, and felted--it is made of some yarn that I've been spinning for about 5 years now--so there's some ramboulliet and some angora mixed with ramboulliet, and some other that I tried to dye with Poinsettias last year--which turned out dark ecru coloured--not RED like it said it should. I don't know what mordant I should have used, but it sure didn't work at all.
I started another made of some weird eyelash yarn, but, made it with too many stitches, and you don't know that until you bind off, so, I have unravelled my 3 hours of knitting, to begin again. It took me a long time to unravel it though, the eyelash sort of inhibited any sort of slippage of the yarn when pulling it. However, now, I must finish a pair of socks--one is done, and the other has 2 inches of ribbing so far. Must finish. Must finish so that I can start another project. ha ha.. like I don't have enough going now....
