This week, I dyed this. Six gorgeous, luscious skeins of this…
Estelle (merino, cashmere, and nylon) dyed in a colourway called Rescue …and I fell in love it with it. Absolutely, deeply, madly in love with it. I thought about keeping it for myself… and I was going to, I really was, but I talked myself out of it and decided to put it in the shop instead.
But first, I emailed a picture of it to a friend. And she emailed straight back with, “I want some!” And five minutes later, another email, “I’ve checked my pattern — I’ll need five skeins.”
And just like that, I went from six skeins to put in the shop to only one skein. But in that one skein… Oh! Some of the most intense, gorgeous green I have ever dyed.
(But if you love it as much as I do and want me to dye any more, talk to me…)

And here’s a few other things going in the shop this week:
Lucina fingering yarn (with sparkles!) in Megan’s Blues
Lusterous Silk/BFL fingering yarn in Megan’s Blues
And, to warm things up a bit…
Estelle (merino/cashmere/nylon) in Engine No9
How did I know that the Queen of Green nabbed those before the rest of us had a look? That yarn never had a chance. Lucky me though, I get to watch the making of The Beautifullest Sweater Ever!
Mwahahahaha! MINE!!!
And they’re going to make the most beautifullest sweater ever!
