As promised, pictures from recent Stash Enriching Expeditions! This is a picture of me, taking by my lovely cousin, in from of all the gorgeous Cascade 220 wool at the crack house, I mean YARN STORE, in Boulder! As a Cascade 220 addict, I was in heaven. I had mentioned before how much I loved that yarn store, and I really do look forward to going back someday to buy out the orphanage.
This is some very pretty Cotton Fleece from Shuttles, Spindles, and Skeins, purchased from the Orphanage for a very reasonable $6.15. It's a lovely jade green, and of course I have no idea what to make out of it.
And this is some Luna cotton yarn from Cascade, all for a very reasonable orphanage price. Can anybody say pretty purple striped scarf?
Gorgeous greens! Purchased from the Lamb Shoppe in Denver, the skein on the left is 100% wool, and the skein on the right is a Debbie Bliss yarn, made of cashmere, wool, and microfibre. Of course, these are going to be a scarf too, with a fun play on different textures in the yarn.
Those were the yarn finds from my recent trip to Denver. I also bought a skein of some Sugar n' Cream cotton yarn, a varigated blue, white, and yellow, to make myself some washcloths.
And also, I order some really fun and pretty handspun from Etsy, from
Spinning Warm Fuzzies. I paid only $8 for about 100 yards of lovely silk/wool handspun, plus $1 for shipping. I highly recommend this Etsy seller. The price was very reasonable, perfect for getting my feet wet when it comes to handspun, internet shopping, and the like. Her shipping was very prompt and the yarn arrived in wonderful condition! I can't wait to start knitting with it.
