I won't show some of the items as a photo of a cone of cream alpaca silk is pretty boring, there were also 2 small balls of angora/silk in cream. As for the rest - you might notice a colour theme developing here
Knitwitches DK Cashmere in Deeply Violet and Gossamer Dreams in Dianthus Pink. This was planned expenditure to add to the yarns bought at Excel earlier this year. I have projects in mind for both.
Hand Spun Mulberry Silk from Di Gilpin - Wye Sue put this into my hand and there it stayed, nothing was going to make me give this up. I have 146 gms to play with - any suggestions?
Eden bought from Di Gilpin, produced by the Fibre Company and it's a mix of French Angora (20%) , Tussah Silk (48%) and Fine Wool (32%). Di has promised to send me a copy of a new pattern she has created for this yarn - guess who is stalking the postman!

Posted by: Jacinta at May 29, 2007 12:55 PMOooooh Yvonne - yummy yummy colours. I can see I'm going to have to plan a trip up to see Di Gilpen soon. What a shame you won't make Woolfest.

Posted by: julie at May 29, 2007 03:33 AMAh, I am so sad that Copenhagen is such a long way from Wales! Unfortunately, we have so few knitting or wool shows here around - like zero ;-)
Posted by: Bettina at May 28, 2007 06:18 PMOooh, very pretty.
Posted by: yvette at May 28, 2007 01:43 PMBeautiful....
Posted by: blueadt at May 28, 2007 11:00 AMThe cone might be boring to look at but not to touch !!!
Look forward to see what they become (eventually..)
Posted by: Sue at May 28, 2007 08:47 AMOh, the colors are divine!
Posted by: Sarah at May 28, 2007 02:50 AMVery nice and yes a definite thing going on with the colours! :-)
