Silk Hues.
Hand-dyed for Knit Purl. It's 100% silk with 440 yards per 50g skein and it's available in about a gazillion colors. Niiice stuff. Sandy Kay is knitting Anne Hanson's Gust with a skein of it:
... in Barbie™ Pink.
To each their own, I guess. It's actually a lovely color, honestly. Just pink. Very pink.
And, finally, we've got roving:
Lots of it. All hand-dyed by Abstract Fiber of Portland. This will be on the website (next week-ish) for those of you far away. We have 10 colorways in 3 fibers: Blue-faced Leicester Superwash, Alpaca/ Merino/ Silk, and Silk/ Cashmere. All are just gorgeous and terribly tempting. I just know I'm going to walk out of here with a looot of roving very soon.
Ooh! We're also supposed to receive a shipment of spindles tomorrow. Our handspinning section is growing quite steadily. Drop by on Saturday to see it in it's inaugural beauty.
And now I must away. Have a good weekend!

Here I am in Seattle, dying to get at that silk lace yarn.
I hope there is some left by the time I get there in late November...
