YPF.................Skein Queen




















I had this Yarn seller pointed out to me by the lovely Piglottie who shares my passion for the Cashmere/lambswool/angora blend that Dee at Posh Yarns uses for Emily. Skein Queen uses the same blend as Dee and dyes up some lovely yarn with cute names. This colourway is called sugared almonds, and I bought on my 14th wedding anniversary with it reminding me of the little bags of sugared almonds we placed on the wedding reception table. I have ordered another colourway from the recent sale too. Remember wearing socks make with this blend is like having your feet kissed and Skein Queen also does custom orders for her colourways :)

Ooh that's lovely. I am a big fan of that fibre blend too so I shall head on over to Skein Queen for a gander!

The B4 bag looks fab, looking forward to seeing it after the magic of felting.

What a sweet sentiment, relating it to your wedding because the colorway does look exactly like those almonds!! yummy!
