New stash from Kingcraig Fabrics.
This is an 850grm cone of 75% lambswool/25% silk. I am planning to knit myself a top from this, and also several pairs of fingerless mitts.
Newly arrived from Copperpot on Etsy – 8ozs of Merino Fibre in “Mango Berry” blend.
This is very much for me. I previously spun a Copeprpot Merino top in Torch Island and knitted my mate a “Noro Hat”. In the recent gales I discovered what a very cosy hat that is …

I am fairly sure that this doesn’t count as stash enhancement, seeing as it was gifted to me. It’s Paton’s “Jet” – an alpaca and wool combination chunky weight yarn. I got two balls in a RAK package and fell instantly in love with it.
This is the same yarn as I am knitting the Pink Swallowtail in. The pink Hamsa scarf came off the same cone.
I love this yarn and when I saw the delectable violet blue, I was smitten. Totally.
More stash additions – these a bit weightier. Ebay bargains from Kingscraig Fabrics…
