And now, more knitting!

I'm knitting another Tuscany. For those counting, this would be #3. I wanted to do a summer-weight one, so of course I reached for the Seasilk. In fact, when I saw the super-sized skeins that somehow leaked into the yarnstream [for sale at The Sweet Sheep], I snapped one up pronto. Because people have told me it takes a skein and a half of seasilk to do a nice-sized Tuscany, and that's the yardage in these larger skeins. Again with the two ends to weave in. Happy happy me.


Did you know? Americo got their summer yarns [aka the non-woolly kind] in stock recently, and I grabbed three skeins of the cotton/silk in sky blue. This bundle is all three skeins twisted together. I love that they do this at Americo. Dammit, I love everything at Americo. The yarn even smells good...delicately botanical. I think it just picks it up from being in the store, but it lasts a while as you knit, and even sensitive-nose me likes the aroma. Mmm.


The puffy part is cotton. The shimmery binder thread is silk. What will this be? Can you say moebius? I thought you could.

They have this yarn in a billion colors [almost] and variations on it as well -- lumpier, bumpier, smoother and the new stuff - cream or black laceweight pure silk. Desirable? I think you know. I loves me the Americo. If you're in town to see Ms Harlot tonight, be sure to stop at Americo before you leave the city limits. Promise me.

Thank you.
