 Take exquisite care with this yarn

       Bamboo Soft
<P>The yarn has a beautiful sheen.   I used some of it to work on a "travelling scarf" which meant that the scarf will ultimately belong to another person.   I was disappointed to find a huge knot that had been tied early on in the ball--it was like a big X.</P> <P> </P> <P>The yarn is very loosely plied.  I think that there are about 6 or 8 minute threads making up the ply and they tend to get loose even with the most dedicated attention.  </P> <P> </P> <P>The yarn does have a wonderful sheen; and I suspect that the scarf will look good if one does not look at the individual stitches too carefully.  I had no idea how to weave in the knot and left it for a more talented sewer/crafter.</P> <P> </P>

       Shepherd Sock
this is a FABULOUS colorway...be sure to get some while they are in stock. I ordered both the sock and the worsted, they arrived today, and I just had to have more. The sock is a much more rich combo of colors, but the worsted is also most lovely...(I just ordered more sock yarn)

 Yummy wrap

I have made this wrap numerous times.  It is beautiful.  I do, however, make it much longer (which requires more yarn obviously).  It's a beautiful simple wrap in Cascade Yarns' "Luna" which requires larger needles and, again, much more yarn.

 Addi "Turbo" Circulars

       Addi Circular

I'm not normally fond of metal needles, and have been increasingly replacing my metal straights with bamboo, birch, or rosewood straights.

However, these circular needles live up to their advertising - knitting with them is very smooth and quick.  I never would have thought I'd find myself recommending these needles, but they're worth the price.

 A wonderful yarn

       New Tweed
This is a wonderful yarn to work with.  It has great yardage and the finished garment is sporty and looks more wooly than it feels.  The yarn instead has a soft hand.  It slides along your needle smoothly and does not split if you have to pick up a dropped stitch.  In addition, it does not pill.  Stitch definition I would say is average...not crisp because of the varigation in the yarn, but not fuzzy either.  All and all, a delight to work with, and I this yarn will not be discontinued.

       Dyed Organic Cotton
This is the most gorgeous yarn - it is the softest cotton I have ever felt, and the colors are beautiful. Even better- it is organically grown! I will be buying more of this one!
