My Canadian Yarn Collection
I added one final skein of Koigu yarn to the other yarns I have purchased on my trip. All were dyed in Canada.
Left to right:
- Koigu PPPM #P123 B367, 50gm / 160m
- Rhichard Devrieze Pepino #Eaton Street 3, 65gm / 206m
- Fleece Artist Merino 2/6 #none, 125gm / 350m
- Rhichard Devrieze Pepino #Pastoral 2, 65gm / 206m
People keep asking me what I will make. I don’t know.
Usually, yarn calls my name and then whispers what it wants to be. Sometimes that whisper takes a while.
This yarn is all fingering weight 100% merino wool. That would suggest a shawl/ wrap or perhaps a long sleeved tee? Socks often use this weight of yarn but can wear out prematurely without nylon or silk to strengthen it.
I’m done with the yarn crawl for this trip. Good yarn adds up fast!
I’m having lunch with a knitting friend Friday/ tomorrow. Looks like Indian food is on the agenda. Yum!
This last photo is a young woman with balloons celebrating her birthday. I saw her group of friends taking photos of her, so started to sing the happy birthday song as I walked past. They joined right in.
It was fun!
