Yarn talk!


 

Something to divert the mind....

I haven¡¯t knit anything in forever.
I haven¡¯t bought yarn in forever!

But! I was at Hobby Lobby the other day with Katie. She was looking at wedding flowers/decorations and I have NO talent with that. So, I meandered back to the fabric section and bumbled around. Saw a little clearance shelf tucked away in a corner with all sorts of stuff.

There were 3 packages of Yarn Bee Pigment + Fiber in the Quarry Rock colorway. Each package includes 6 balls of yarn in shades from black to grey to winter white. 1.99 each package. .33?/ball of yarn. (Katie didn't even scold me for buying more yarn at that price. ?)

It¡¯s a wool/nylon/acrylic blend. Very soft. Should be sturdy.
Each set of 6 has a total of 630 yds.
Gauge is 32 spi on a size 2 needle.

I have all this high-end, expensive yarn tucked away and this makes me ridiculously happy. ?

No clue what to make with it!
Definitely thin enough for Fair Isle or lace. Some fade pattern?

Ideas? Here¡¯s a pic.
