They just call out to be filled with yarn. It is a good thing that the Container Store is a 45 minute drive from my house and a trip there requires a commitment to a half-day of shopping.<br /><br />Nice choices. I've been puzzled of late by yarns rated as "worsted". Many seem only slightly heavier (if that) than the stuff we Marjoriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18193884287824942150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1992296059190319415.post-83825665234322265652009-09-21T06:31:18.192-07:002009-09-21T06:31:18.192-07:00You've got my approval with that green yarn, a...You've got my approval with that green yarn, and I agree, you can't go wrong with alpaca.

I guess it could fill in the space in a bulky sort of way if it wanted to, but it looks a lot like Kid Silk Haze to me, and I've knitted that as a lace weight... Either way, the yarns are gorgeous, the space is available, and the patterns are excellent. Time to cast on! :)Knitting Linguisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289230533275408343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1992296059190319415.post-34145035509223108602009-09-20T04:32:44.555-07:002009-09-20T04:32:44.555-07:00Nature abhors a vacuum and so do I!

I have an old yarn from Knitpicks that they said was bulky, but that really isn't. So I haven't figured out what to do with it yet.<br /><br />SueLife Looms Largehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05522897791564181980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1992296059190319415.post-82008959515416570182009-09-19T22:29:22.036-07:002009-09-19T22:29:22.036-07:00Look forward to their incarnations - I have been v...Look forward to their incarnations - I have been very pleased with my Knitpicks acquitions.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06432035940956042729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1992296059190319415.post-13729460383208256482009-09-19T20:39:52.525-07:002009-09-19T20:39:52.525-07:00Enjoy!

They hang perfectly one side to the other; that one's a bit boomerangish shaped. Okay, I'll be quiet, it's a perfectly good pattern! And that is lovely yarn.AlisonHhttp://spindyeknit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1992296059190319415.post-26225211375303825692009-09-19T18:21:07.542-07:002009-09-19T18:21:07.542-07:00I haven't really understood the system of yarn...I haven't really understood the system of yarn weights. Some of the yarn that are bulky weight really don't look bulky. Maybe it blooms after knitting. Your yarns look super.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07864486239094681293noreply@blogger.com
