THE GOOD DAY AFTER ALL

After a damp depressed start to the day.....
1. l got a call from James...always makes me happy hehehe..home for a long weekend
2. A wonderful trip to a yarn store...a feast of colour and fabulous yarns
3. Fabulous price.....wow wow wow!!...one happy bunny

THE WINTER RIPPLE
Very hard to decided on the colours l want to use for the ripple throw......did a couple of samples but love the mixed colour yarns and it was soooo hard to decide on what colours to leave out so.....

l'm going to use (l think) a mixture of 3 colours as one yarn of this gorgeous 100% Merino and an 8mm hook....
love the chunky look and with so many colours l can make up endless combinations of mixed yarn colours and the look is subtle and blended with no clashes
What a fabulous shop...COLOUR MART SHREWSBURY...sooooooooooo helpful and because l bought 38 colours and 200grms of each l got it at an unbelievable price...

Normally this 100% (super soft )Merino yarn is normally £1.50 per 50grms
comes on cones...great machine for winding the amount you want onto cones
