This is the Vicky Howell Love yarn in the color Harold & Maude. I had thought perhaps it would be worsted weight yarn, but it looks to be a bit thicker than fingering...but not DK... I'm not sure. BUT it feels really nice, bamboo & silk. My mother suggested maybe a lacey shawl... hm... perhaps... Now I just gotta find a pattern for it... maybe the clapotis?? if I end up making a shawl i shall give it to my mother.
Sock yarn from webs had arrived in one tiny box. It's yarn from artyarn for the socks i am planning on making for my dad for father's day. Now since we celebrate father's day in August, I have awhile.
Having this tiny box of yarn show up on my door has given me hope that ordering internet yarn isn't that big of a deal... since it arrives all in one piece. It's just the ordering to china that sucks. I shall not have anything delievered in china anymore... china delivery sucks.
This bag of yarn also arrived it was the personal swap yarn I did... now I have a whole bunch of yarn that i don't know what to do with! :) I never know what to do with novelty yarn... while they always seemed like a good idea at the store, once i get home... i'm like huh? well until i know what i should do with them, they shall just sit there.
this sheep card also arrived from the PAT ATC. I heart it. So simple, yet so good. I am amazed at the creativity that other people have! simply amazing!!
I have restored faith in mail order once agin..
tomorrow is monday, and i shall hit up the post office and mail out a bunch of stuff!!
yay for mail order.
p.s. the douphus that is me forgot to bring the required crochet hook for the afghan thati had brought the yarn to work on. doh!
so now i have to purchase new hook and a few more new needles for the sock yarn. but it's not a big deal cuz i like to buy new needles...
