I'm not sure what to do with less 100 g of laceweight camel/tussah, but it sure is pretty

O, that's surely enough for a scarf?

[crafty_packrat]

well, maybe. It's definitely less than 100 g. It might in fact be less than 50 g -- which is nothing, even at laceweight...

Oh, sad. :( Can you make a beautiful cowl? Can you spin up something similar, an ounce or so, and flesh it out? Sometimes a contrasting border is really pretty; I saw a woman in the library wearing an Icarus shawl which was bottle-green, but with an ivory border--really striking.

Ravelry's advanced pattern search is amazing for this - you can search by "laceweight" and yardage and pattern category. They've got about 100 free patterns that use less than 400 yards...looks like a lot of lace scarves, but also some small shawls and some gloves.

What came to mind even before I checked there - last year Knitting Daily had some very pretty lace mitts made from a fairly small amount of handspun guanaco fiber. Or the "Abby" cowl from Knitty.
