Reference<\/a> Actually, this is my least favorite track on the CD.<\/p>\n

This is kind of embarrassing to admit, given how I tease others for having to go through their stashes so that they don’t go out and buy something that they already have hidden away somewhere; but when I went searching through containers to find the worsted weight that I told you about in the last post<\/a>, I found yarn that I forgot that I had! Fortunately, it is such great stuff that I have gotten over my embarrassment rather quickly.<\/p>\n

As a means of setting the scene, the Interlacements yarn was purchased from Judy Ditmore during MAFA’s <\/a>2005 conference. That was the same time that I purchased the yarn for Mr. Penney’s sofa shawl<\/a>. Well, one of the other vendors at that conference was Habu<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Yes, that’s right.\u00a0It was\u00a0chance to see Habu’s yarn’s first hand, rather than just on the website. And to see and touch these yarns meant that I had to purchase some.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is 20\/3 bamboo<\/a>. It feels wonderful, and I have 13.7 ounces of it. SQUEEE!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is 2\/48 merino wool<\/a>. I have about 7 ounces of this. There is no suggested epi for this yarn on the site, so I am going to have to do a wrap to find out what sett I will do.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And finally, there is this little wonder, 21\/3×2 silk organize<\/a>. According to the label, there are 4600 yards per skein for this silk, and I have 4 skeins of it. Working with this will probably make my head hurt, but it will be worth it.<\/p>\n

Now, if you notice, all of this is undyed. Toward that end, this arrived in the mail the other day:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Granted, I have done dyeing before; but having additional references is never a bad thing for me. Dye days will be in my future!<\/p>\n
