A few years ago I happened across the Crown Mountain website, and ended up with the most gorgeous pencil roving ever beheld by woman. Look at the colors of this stuff! I mean seriously, doesn't it just make you want to dive in naked and wiggle around a bit?Ahem. Sorry. Anyway, even though I don't spin and don't really aspire to learn, I have a big bag of the apparently discontinued "Crown Jewels" colorway in my stash - a wonderful mix of dark blues and bright yellows which reminds me of the textiles of Provence. I'm thinking it will become part of a squiggle shawl as soon as I have the spare time to make it. (Any minute now . . . )
But today I happened back across the site, and discovered their superwash
merino/bamboo/nylon sock yarn. The colorway "Tobacco Road" is freaking gorgeous, and "Sunshine Of Your Love" isn't bad either.I have no affiliation with the company, other than unbridled lust for their products. But my birthday is coming up, and so I just thought I'd mention it, in case anyone is in a shopping mood.
