My yarn arrived today (3 days earlier than tracking said!!!) and I’m completely gobsmacked with one of the two yarns I ordered. I intend to make a light lace shawl for myself using a lovely heathered grey yarn. The photo I took doesn’t quite cover the depth of the colour – the camera doesn’t pick up all the tones that are there, but it’s a lovely yarn. I’ll be making it into a Haruni shawl (exactly like this one because it’s gorgeous – same yarn btw).
That’s not the yarn that has me entranced, though.
Again, the camera doesn’t pick up all the tones and heathered shades. There’s a whole depth of colour that *you* can’t see but it’s SO THERE. The pic I took makes it a bit lighter than it is, too. Imagine a heaping pile of blue sapphires and then look right into the heart of it, with light and dark tones and refractions of blue everywhere. That’s how awesome this yarn is. I’m going to design a scarf for myself using it – something lightweight and long and (hopefully) stylish while still showing my admiration for classic lace. I’m going to get started on it right now!
