I *heart* homespun.

I seem to have developed a love affair with homespun and/or hand-dyed yarns. I've been collecting a few 'bits and pieces'. A hank of alpaca here, a skein of wool/silk blend there. Very thick merino/possum, cobweb light 2ply, whatever takes my fancy!

Very soft wool in blues/aqua/purple
A gorgeous wool/mohair boucle
Pumkin (named by the seller!), wool plied with a fancy sea weedy yarn
Sigh.
So much yummy yarn out there, so little money. It's really hard to use them because once they're used there won't be any more. Ever.

It's even to see why... you got me interested just seeing those colors and I'm not even a knitter. I love colors! I bet they feel good too.
