In the sample shown above, Annie paired her leftover Dream State scraps and some of her own handspun with Sugarplum Circus BFL Sport in Black Walnut.
In the sample below, Annie used Sugarplum Circus Merino 4-ply held with Mohair Lace (leftover from her Trilogy sweater) in Forbidden Forest for her main color with Sugarplum Circus BFL Sport in Seaglass (leftover from her Crunchy Crop) for the stripes.
