I am just in love with my recent yarn purchases. Last week I went to Knitting Arts in Saratoga to shop for yarn choices for
Phildar Swing Jacket. I ended up buying two skeins of Malabrigo Merino Worsted in color "Velvet Grapes". I have been eyeing it ever since I saw it
here. But both Pureknits and
WEBS are out of stock on this color. Thus as soon as I saw it on the shelves, I put them right into my basket. What am I going to make with it? Not sure yet. Maybe another
Tiger Eye Scarf for myself, although I doubt the gauge will work out. No matter, I am sure I'll find a good project for it.
This is Kaalund Expressions (100% Kid Mohair) in colorway "Pawpaw". I found it at
Imagiknit this week, when I went to look for yarn for Philar Swing Jacket (again...) You see how much this jacket is already costing me and I haven't even picked out the yarn for it yet?! Well, I am planning to make my first
Swallow Tail Shawl in this yarn. Misti Alpaca Lace in lavender just got bumped into second place.
Although the colors are not as clear in this picture, I love how it turned out.

Somehow that Kaalund doesn't look like mohair, it's more like silk/wool blend. Anyway, I like it too, what other colorways do they have? And how much?
I know, it doesn't look like mohair at all. The "hairs" are very fine and short. I am hoping it will suit Swallow Tail Shawl.
They have 3 other colors there, I think.
1. Similar to Pawpaw, but darker tones with more taupe, I think it was called "Nectarine". Very pretty too.
2. Purple/lavender/blue combination - your favorite kind.
3. Grey/beige/ivory combination.
It is about $22 for 460m.
Mmmm, interesting, are you going back there any time soon? hahaha...
Actually, I found some really pretty lace weight yarn at Little Knits...
