Remember when I got that handspun at the swap in October and was so excited about using it? The stuff turned out to be super itchy so I put it up for trade on Ravelry. Almost as soon as I did so, I got a message from someone wanting it. Not long after, the yarn was on its way out and I’d received two skeins of Koigu. My very first Koigu. I’ve only ever seen it in a store once (back home) but couldn’t get myself to pay the steep price usually asked for. Matt decided to play around with the skeins and below is the result. He’s probably going to kill me for putting up these photos but whatever. He likes to mention my distaste of veggies and other picky eating habits on his blog on the time.
It’s gorgeous!! What are you going to make with it?
I really have no clue. I’m still not one to make socks so that’s out. I’ll probably make some sort of scarf out of it. Maybe it’ll be a give for my friend Amy when I visit her in Germany this Spring. Who knows.
