Fiber Arts Friday: Wingspan, part 11

The Forever Wingspan still continues, but is nearing the end.


I have been weighing the cake between wedges.  Each wedge takes about 1/2 an ounce of yarn.  So this means I might be into the last and final wedge...  Lucky number 13.  ;-)

Although, I have a little more yarn available than what's shown here, I do have to reserve enough to make the border and bind-off, and I don't want to play yarn chicken.  So we'll see how brave I'm feeling after finishing #13.  ;-)

At one point I thought this was going to make it to 16 or 17 wedges.... not sure what I was thinking. lol.

Happy Fiber Arts Friday!

    Fingers crossed that you can finish with enough to weave ends in. Yikes! weighing yarn to calculate yardage...that's so scary.

    Excitement on the Wingspan front abounds! It's looking good - can't wait to see it completed (and I bet you can't either). :)
