I really like their yarn, but I don't think that they are awesome at naming their colours. For example, this...
,,, is the yarn and colour I am currently using for a shawl for a friend. It's a pleasure to knit with, the colours are lovely and the shading is amazing. The knitted fabric is snuggly, warm and drapes incredibly well. I shall definitely get it again. It's called 'Rockpool'. I may have had a sheltered life but I've never seen a purple rockpool. I'll post when the shawl is finished.
I'm on here because I'm avoiding clearing out the walk in cupboard. It needs to be done because next month I am definitely getting a new freezer and I need to be able to get the old one out and the new one in and also any day now our new tv will arrive and I want to rearrange the dining room before it's all swapped around and at the moment it's filled with rubbish, junk, boxes, barely concealed Christmas presents and ironing. I found some old mini bath bombs that I got in for the bran tub at church last year and tried putting them down the toilet. I suppose it was a worthwhile experiment but bathbombs do not clean toilets and I now have a toilet brush clogged up with leathery rose petals.
I had better get going as I have already received a large Approved Food delivery and packaging and cheap goodies are already strewn everywhere and I am losing what is left of my sanity. Just want to say that I really appreciate the comments, and I am definitely using Carol's suggestions on my steps. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the help that I get from the lovely people that stop by.
Beautiful colour yarn! I haven't ever seen a rockpool that colour either.
