Finally, a yarn inspired by Whistler. This is my custom blend in singles, mixed ply and two ply, I have stocked up on this yarn and will have the neck wrap pattern available shortly. Yes, I know I’ve said this before, but it’s being test knit and it’s ……almost ready. The yarn is a beautiful blend of cream, caramel, a pale yellow and silver glitz. Here is the yarn in its various states. I spun like a dervish.
I have been thinking about this since my first week in Whistler. While in the warm cozy market, watching the snowboarders looking so much like puffed up marshmallows heading to glaciers. And to show that I am not a one trick pony—- my homage to Tofino. I am not just a beige girl.
Kelp, water, foam coasting on tide waters, it’s all in this little blend.
It is going to be a wonderful experiment of felted kelp bits on the ply……I might not be able to tackle it until next week (which makes me sad). More chance to work out the delicate intricacies of felting seaweed. A new adventure.
I can’t even consider spinning this today. Serious count of spinning 2lbs —enough is enough. Pearl is coming over tomorrow! She’ll set me straight.
