I’ve wanted to knit a garment entirely from Lamb’s Pride Worsted for a while. It’s so annoying that the yarn isn’t available in the UK. So I bought a load from Dharma Trading while I was there!
The colours haven’t come out very well in the picture but I bought three skeins of the pink and three of Amethyst to make a cardi of some sort. I’m actually wondering about trying Lara from Debbie Bliss’s Alpaca Silk book. I would use the Amethyst on the body and the pink for the ribbed collar and cuffs. The yarn might be able to stretch to it as I always have to shorten sleeves. The blue is called Blue Boy. I bought two skeins for gloves or felting or something.
A Squiggle and Fizz scarf from yarns bought in the Bay Area – Squiggle from Britex Fabrics in SF and the Fizz from Dharma Trading in San Rafael.
I’ve also made this pair of earrings from some 14mm size bumpy beads that bought in General Bead. They were really cheap – $7.95 for 24 beads. I may use the remaining beads for a bracelet.
More SF stash later!
Nice stuff! The scarf and earrings are lovely. I’ve already started using my pin cushion. I love it. Hey, any time you need some Lamb’s Pride, just holler!
