Wednesday’s mail was waiting when I got home late. A box!
A box of yarn arrived from Web*sters in Ashland, Oregon. Silk Blend. 70% Merino wool and 30% silk. Manos del Uruguay. I’ve plans to knit my way through the freezing season. So soft and the colors like jewels.
Magenta, Aster, Dark Cherry. I love the names of the colorways.
Spolier alert: Knitty City Horizontal Cowls (link to their free pattern) for gifts.
I’ve made three already. Oh and an attempt for a circle scarf from a different yarn (the gray)
It can’t just post comfort food.
I like this particular pattern cause the circular knitting goes around and around and around, getting me to a peaceful place, sucking out my anxiety, making me calm. Trying not to notice the sun setting earlier already.
This is nice
The yarn looks beautiful and will be, I think, a pleasure to wear 🙂
Thanks for the visit and good words Colline. Hope you school year is going well.
So far so good Ruth. We are still establishing routines with the littles ones.
exquisite colors
My shawl is my constant comfort-a hug whenever I need one. Thanks Ruthie
You are the best – I love the analogy. A “nut gathering acorns for the winter.” The scarves will be beautiful!
Beautiful colors and you can feel how soft and luxurious they are just from the photos!!! Yes, I can believe that knitting with them would create calm and peace!!!!
Glorious colours Ruth!
love the colours and textures. happy knitting!
Both the patterns and the colors are so lovely! Even though I am a crochet girl at heart, I might have to give this knitting pattern a whirl. It looks easy enough for even me to be able to follow it. 🙂
Beautiful, Ruth. I collect books and beads for the winter.
