First of all, can anybody guess what this is?

Here's a close-up:

If anyone can tell me exactly what these photos are, I will send her (or him) some yarn. Or maybe I'll send it to whoever gets closest, since I'm not sure anyone will guess exactly. It's a new project I'm quite excited about.
What
else have I been up to?
Well...
I blocked my Shetland Triangle:

I have been wearing this thing almost every day. Chicago =
not very warm yet.
I cast on for
Tempest:

Is it me, or does involving stripes make knitting stockinette seem a lot faster?
AND I designed and knit a (rather simple) market bag.
Presenting Ilene:

I've written down the pattern and once I figure out how to put it on the internet neatly, I will do so. There are more photos on
Ravelry.

I will guess human hair, entwined a bit; knotted perhaps?
I'm gonna go with handspun plied angora...
Hmm, I know from your Ravelry profile that you don't have any pets, but it kind of looks like the stuff I get off my Persian, and then think to myself, wouldn't that be a lovely yarn? I'm going to guess cat hair - maybe it's from a friend! Although, like kglo, I initially thought angora! seems like you wouldn't ask us if it was something so simple though - it's gotta be more exotic than that!
Ooh, I also forgot to comment that I love the market bag! It's perfect with the wide short handle - I have one that I never use because, sure it'll expand enough to fit a couple full sized adults in, but that baby will slice you arm right off because it's all supported by a couple long thin straps - stupid design, but yours is brilliant!
