I studied History of Art at school many moons ago! One project I was assigned in that time was to do a study of the Artists from a particular 'period' that interested me. I chose Post-Impressionist painters as their works were and still are my favourite. I have prints of
Seurat,
Cross and
Gauguin on my Living room wall which I searched for for many years before finding them in the shop at the Louvre Museum in Paris. Claudia from
Wollmeise also has an interest in this period and has named 4 new yarns after some of the artists including
Paul which todays yarn is named after. Way to go Claudia I could not resist this particular colourway ever!! Now I have the perfect colour for my
Firestarters and since I have done a toe up sock now I can contemplate beginning these, after I have finished 3 projects, I did promise. :)




This skein is sockenwolle and so soft!!!
Very nice I like the colour combo I'm almost tempted to buy DH some as his name is "Paul" :o)
ReplyDeleteThat is some of the bst sock yarn and the color is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI've got to try and get some of those new colors!

ReplyDeleteI love her new artist series. I remember reading her blog post about these new colors and I thought they were marvelously spot on.
ReplyDeleteHa, now I know why snatched it from me! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat sock yarn just looks great, I'm really looking forward to how the Firestarters will loop in it :)
