i stashed the vast majority of my yarn; 212 entries on ravelry. i even managed a few swatch pictures -- i think i'll do that with all yarn i have from now on;

and to reward myself, i went go my LYS (mad about ewe), and bought some more yarn. OMG, handmaiden silk lace!



100% hemp yarn:



polyester-flax-silk mix; dirt cheap at 7.99 for 100gr / 500yd -- that's only 0.016 a yard!



and they now carry fibre! lynette was all excited about new plans for more fibre from sweetgeorgia; now i am too. this is merino roving, colourway "rain forest".

I have petted that Handmaiden silk lace, I think. Mmm.

[piranha]

that's how she tricked me into buying it -- she gave it to me "just for petting". :D

Working with silk has just spoiled me for any other fiber. (Cross-stitch, but still.)

i am polyamorous about fibre too, *grin*. silk, oh yes, but also merino and cashmere and bamboo and linen...

It's always wonderful to see what people have in their stash - thanks!

[piranha]

you're not on ravelry, are you?

[lorres]

no, I'm afraid I'd never get off once I got on...

I have almost had incidents with Handmaiden yarns before, and those incidents are, I WILL BUY ALL OF THEM IF LEFT UNCHECKED.
