In reply to Johann Mitchell.

Johann, your comment has absolutely made my day. And you're right, there's almost nothing so magical as the subtle shades that develop when two colours run together.
Yes, that skein is going in the shop, probably tomorrow (today rather got away from me!). This one is a merino/silk blend and, no, I didn't dye any more skeins, because I had to see how this one came out first, but I don't think it will be a problem to repeat the colourway -- and I'm so in love with it that I certainly plan to, in several different kinds of yarn! I can't wait to get cracking with it!
