YPF.....

This week's yarn is another skein of a favourite yarn. Elizabeth Bennett is more than an iconic fictional heroine. She is a specially made yarn for Yarn Love. The yarn is a combination of 65% superfine merino, 20% bamboo, and 15% silk. The result is silky smooth yarn with a soft sheen. These 2 skeins came from Sonny and Shear.

I love the combination of these 2 colours


It really is as soft as it looks

I wish I had the time to knit the yarn when it arrived!!!

Back to sock knitting!! I have to take pictures of yarn at the weekend due to light issues! It is nearly as overcast here as Forks!!

  2. The yarn combination will be comforting due to its softness. The colors remind me of flowering shrubs in the garden. Have you thought of a pattern for this beauty?

    Winter really messes with photography, doesn't it? This yarn photo is fantastic, though. Can't wait to see what you knit with it.
