yarn

April 8, 2010

(edited to add: got the yarn in the mail, and i love it! i highly recommend this etsy shop–beautiful yarns and a sweet seller!)

i won a $20 gift certificate for the the urchiness etsy shop back in december. she has gorgeous yarns and beautiful fiber, and since the GC was valid for a full year, i took my time stalking browsing her shop and mulling over the beautiful yarns. today this one caught my eye, and i just had to have it:

i bought it, and i’m so excited to get it in the mail! i’ve only knit with handspun once before, and i think it’s so amazingly beautiful.

it’s just the sort of color i used in my valentine’s day treasury. my color preferences are a bit predictable.

    Pretty things like this make me wish I knit! Curious to see what you make with it. Do you have any ideas yet?

    maybe a hat–probably a simple pattern so that the beauty and variability of the yarn is shown off. it’ll take me forever to start a project with it. i tend to keep yarns around for a long time before actually knitting with them. i take my time and stare at them and contemplate possibilities.
