Dear silk, I hate you!

Well, not really. I love the fibre silk. It is one of nature's most beautiful fibre's. It's just I can't knit with it. It grabs my knitting needles like it's holding on for dear life and makes my life hell. I've tried knitting twice with Kaalund Yarn's Enchante in Wisteria and I end up frogging what ever I'm making in frustration. So, it's official - I will never knit with 100% silk again.

Lush Yarn Lucky Dip

Yesterday I received a package on my doorstep. It was a box with some pretty yarn in it. Three skeins to be exact. I knew that there would be something green in there, but I had never seen the yarn before. I had purchased a green lucky dip from Lush Yarn. I opened then box in anticipation of whats inside and was surprised by these lovelies!
