Got Yarn???


Buying yarn can be fun and rewarding, especially when you get a huge amount at a fantastic price. This was my 'haul' at a local yarn shop recently. Unfortunately I didn't realize exactly how much I had purchased until I got it all home!
It looks like I will have to sell off some of it..
There is some beautiful wool/silk blends and some gorgeous bamboo/silk blend as well!
Pictured are yarns from the Vickie Howell Collection "ROCK" and "LOVE", some calypso, some Karaoke and some bamboo feather.

Miscellaneous ramblings...



I've been crocheting for many many years and just love the feel of the various yarns currently available. I'm not sure if I have a favourite but silks and bamboos rank right up there right now.

This bamboo feather works so well with the larger crochet hooks.

This and other specialty yarns are often available for purchase in my
Etsy shop .
