Beautiful Yarn!

This is such a lovely yarn and I can’t wait to knit with it! I’ve been wanting to try this yarn for quite a while, and was so excited that the Woolly Thistle started carrying it! I ordered the Wild Thyme and Pomegranate colors. Both are gorgeous and have a nice sheen to them. The colors in the photos are good representations of the actual colors. The yarn is woolly while still being soft in the hand. It has a delicate look to it and seems like it would work well for both drape and lace. I plan to knit two different shawls designed by Kate Davies. I’m looking forward to getting more colors too!
