This week, I’ve been mostly….
…doing Woolsilk!
I’ve had these sitting on a shelf for a while, so it’s about time I shared them with somebody!
This is quite a new yarn in the collection, and is a limited addition. Once it’s gone, it’s…..well…gone!
The yarn is a smooth, evenly twisted lace yarn, and with 800m to 100g is a heavyish laceweight. It is 50% silk, giving it a lovely subtle sheen and soft drape, and 50% wool (of an unspecified variety). The skeins are huge, and vary a little in weight, and so have different prices, but mosty they range from 140m to 150m per skein. Loads and loads for a big shawl! Here’s a peek at what’s gone in the shop today….
