Here comes my latest elfyarn design - an ultra ultra ultra ultra soft and cosy merino/silk blend ,handpainted and handspun into the finest fingering weight yarn! The whopping 725yds will be more than enough to knit a large stole/shawl/long hatscarf, or to knit/crochet several smaller pieces from it. I have called this elfyarn "Gwragedd Annwn" which in Welsh means as much as "Women/Wives of the Otherworld". The yarn is displayed in my Etsy store, and here are some pics for you:
It takes me a minimum of 20 hours to finish one lot of 3.6oz of this very fine elfyarn, but it is absolutely worth the effort :o)
I also displayed a new BFL yarn design in my Etsy store called "Dragonflies&Pixies", and it is already sold, but here are 2 photos of this beauty:
Great colourway, isn't it?
I will be mordanting some new Merino fingering weight yarn tomorrow and hopefully be painting half of them this week. The wool boards are still packed with wet fleeces - god, please give us some warm sunshine up here in the North!!!!!!! These fleeces would dry sooooo much faster, if the sun stayed out for just a few hours, sigh....
