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!!

More lovely yarn :-)

Ah, if only we didn't have to work, we could knit to our hearts content ;-)

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.

The yarn looks lovely. I agree with you one the whole picture taking process . . . winter is a bad time to photograph.
