More spinning

I've been remiss about posting, but not about spinning, at least not entirely. I've filled three spindles and need to wind off. At this rate, I'll only get through half of the target fiber blend by the end of the race, but at least it's keeping me spinning every day.
Haven't taken any photos yet because the wool is just a sort of fawn brown color and not too exciting. The charka is an interesting spinning tool but I've posted photos of it before so that alone doesn't justify it.
What to make from a wool and cotton blend? Good question. Knitted lace, perhaps a scarf, is all I can think of so far. I'm open to suggestions. This stuff is sort of like a poor person's cashmere. It looks like cashmere, but feels more like lamb's wool.
