My Recent Purchases

Want to know what I just bought? Of course you do. You’re as yarn-obsessed as me, right? ;)

Eight skeins of Knit Picks Shine Sport in “Harbor”:

Three skeins of Knit Picks Shine Sport in “Cream”:

Those eleven skeins are for my first FULL garment design. You read that right! I’m moving from sketches and swatches to a full, realized garment! *squee* I’m so excited! (EXCLAMATION POINT x INFINITY)

Now, as a reward for myself (because I need more of a reward than eleven skeins of pretty yarn?), I also bought myself 4 skeins of Knit Picks Bare Superwash (merino/nylon sock yarn) to dye.

Seriously, this is, like, the best night of my life. *twirls around in circles*

I can’t wait for it to arrive. I haven’t used the Shine Sport before, but I’ve been pleased with most of the Knit Picks I have come across. As for the Bare yarn, I’m really eager to get my hands on that yarn to dye. It’s been a while since my first dye-job, and I can’t wait to start mixing colors again. I may use the yarn myself, or sell some of it. I know that each skein is 462 yards of sock-weight yarn, which would be fantastic for so many projects.

How would you feel about that? Would you guys buy some yarn if I dyed some for you? It would never become a full-time thing for me, but it would definitely be something I’d do for special occasions.
