Anyone who has paid us a visit knows that Spin A Yarn is absolutely stuffed full of yarn! Having tried to reduce stock by having a sale, what did I do yesterday?

I received a very tempting shade card from Shilasdair on the Isle of Skye of the latest yarns which they are now producing for trade customers.

I'm afraid that I couldn't resist the colours and wonderful softness of the Luxury DK and 4 ply. The mix of 20% cashmere, 40% Angora and 40% British Merino is so gorgeous that my most difficult problem was confining myself to only 12 colours of each.

Then I clicked the send button and ordered. Where they are going to fit I have no idea. I just had to order them! My favourite cardigan is knitted in Shilasdair Cashmere so I have a long standing weakness.

Hope others like the beautiful natural colours that Eva uses to dye this wonderful soft yarn?

They'll be arriving in about 3 weeks time. I can't wait!!
