these are a few of my favorite things: angora & yellow & quilts!
I do love the possibilities in an unknit skein of yarn. Golden angora – how lovely! Can’t wait to see what you do with it!
Is that more a lemony yellow or a buttery yellow? Even though I know it isn’t quite my color, I am wanting to knit something buttery yellow, I am specifically thinking of seeing if Araucania Azapa is available in a buttery yellow to make myself an Irish Hiking Scarf. Buttery. Yellow.
Or maybe something buttery for a cowl.
I’d say the yarn color leans towards mustard, but in a good french dijon way, I’m toying with lace backed gloves, hoping the fuzz will delicately fill the holes for warmth, but still allow the pattern to show…what ‘cha think?
I lost my butter yellow Malabrigo cabley mittens, so I shall have no pie…a buttery yellow scarf sounds tempting, things knitted with yellow wool keep you warmer you know.
oh how I love that shade…all shades of yellow most esp buttery, and ochre….and mustard…all except 70′s acrylic yellow. How about a nice little headwarmer, headband cabled thingie? Something warm and cozy round your ears.
i think that sounds lovely! Went to Belfast yest to go to Heavenly Socks. Did you know Helen also sells fresh eggs? Cracks me up…… only in maine can you go to your LYS and buy farm fresh yummy eggs lol!!!
Oh, great. Lemon, butter, dijon, eggs… now I’m hungry.
Though the angora is pretty yummy, too!
