More Leaves

I have used up every last bit of ITW "Dramatic Pause" but I need more knitted leaves.

I tried another ITW colorway but it did not coordinate well with "Dramatic Pause". Looking through my handspun yarn stash I found HipStrings' Buoy in the colorway, "Depths".

 


It is perfect. I enjoyed spinning the yarn and love the fiber blend of Buoy: 37.5% BFL wool, 37.5% Shetland wool, 25% Manx Loaghtan wool. Sturdy, soft, and squishy.

The leaves are knitting up beautifully.

 

 

Boots is keeping an eye on things. I bet she is hopeful that I will walk away again and leave my (edible) paper unprotected.
