Shop Update: And Then There Was… One

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…)

  1. 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!
