I have some catching up to do! First, it was Christmas in January here at Healthy Tension as Carolyn destashed. Ah, bliss:
I was a fool as Linen Drape sailed off into the sunset and didn't lay in a lifetime's supply...this generous gift certainly eases the pain! And to receive this yarn at this time of year is therapy for winter blahs, that's for sure. Getting out my summer Rowan books from back in L.Drape's heyday and daydreaming was just what I needed.
Ellie was with me when I received this yarn...she insisted on holding this skein all the way home, so I knew the first thing to come from it would be socks for her. This is Opal in the Flamingo colorway -- such fun!
The colors pop a lot more in real life. There was also a skein of Kureyon in the pack, which has already been knit into one-third of a hat and frogged. Thanks so much, Carolyn!!
Ellie has great taste in yarn. What a great stash enhancement too. Have you certain plans for it all yet.
