Spring garage sales hit town last weekend; and while my real reason to go into town was to mail off a skein of yarn I had sold on etsy (yea!), I managed to hit a few sales. And voila a whole box of wool yarn was just sitting there waiting for me, calling me to not leave one skein behind. And how could I choose, the colors are so yummy.
So for my skein that I sold I came home with 29 new skeins. I was going to hide it in my stash before dear hubby came home but spent so much time admiring it on my pretty flowered table cloth, that I was kind of caught in the act of fondling and photographing.
So supper was delayed until my daughter scooped the pile up and unceremoniously dumped everything into a basket, thereby breaking my yarn spell.
In my defense, I was going to dye up some wool yarn, that Joanne had shared with our weavers group, for a krokbragd project; but now I have all sorts of colors to play with. I can krokbragd till the cows come home. Don’t anyone burst my bubble and tell me I have spelled krokbragd wrong, cause I am pretty impressed with myself for not having to look it up even though it is making my spell checker go crazy.
Well, it is all quite pretty! Don't forget to check for moths…
Wow!! and I thought I had a find a brand new Dutch sketching set of pencils! The colors are absolutely beautiful…weave away.
sounds like a fair trade to me!
