Fiber Friday: Stash Enhancement!

Like most knitters, and crocheters, I need more yarn like I need a hole in my head but I can’t seem to resist all those beautiful colors of fiber parading across my screen.  A girl must do what a girl must do, and this girl simply had to purchase a few new skeins for the stash!

I’ve added a few skeins of yarn from my dear friend Maya’s shop, Springtree Road, which includes two skeins of worsted weight in Philomath in Atia, along with one skein of Muscadine in Antiqued Rose and one skein of Julep in Ridge.  Maya just loaded her shop with two new lines of yarns this week, Julep Twist and Jessamine Lace, beautiful colors in both new lines!

I was very excited to hit Katie Franceschi wonderful “store stash busting sale” online at her Etsy Shop, Yarn Love , and snagged a skein of Cashmere Blend Fingering weight (80% superwash merino wool, 10% cashmere and 10% nylon)  in the colorway Mulled Wine and a skein of Diana (100% superwash merino wool) in the colorway Banana Split. You can purchase Katie’s gorgeous yarn online at Yarn Love.

I’m very pleased with my latest stash enhancement and can’t wait to find just the right socks patterns for my fingering weight.  As far as the worsted weight, well, I’m thinking about a new scarf design ~ I’ll keep you posted!

Until next time, happy knitting, crocheting, spinning, weaving and crafting!
