My yarn club came today. I was looking forward to it because several weeks ago, they asked which colors I preferred. One of the choices was reds, and that’s what I was expecting. What I got was one wine, one grey and one black. I looked at the pattern and I said, “oh.” I honestly expected so much more from Miss Babbs. I have gotten some absolutely beautiful yarn from them. The stuff the I got today was down right dull. I am so disappointed. I’ll be looking elsewhere for a yarn club next year. Hells. Bells.
This is the sock yarn dyed especially for Sheep and Wool. I thought it was a little tame, but it should make nice socks.
This my club installment. It’s lace weight silk and wool which is nice. Lace weight should be soft and lacy, not geometric. I have some yellow-orange alpaca that I plan to add. It should help soften the look. So. I guess I’ll go look at patterns.
