Today’s subject is stash colour. I love lots of different colours, but I really love purples. Though my main yarn of choice these days are the hand painteds. Show me a beautiful hand painted yarn and I will almost throw caution to the wind and ignore the wool content 🙂 That’s how come I have a couple skeins of alpaca still in my stash.
Now we’re supposed to actually check our stash and see if it matches what we think. And yep, most of the yarn is variegated, hand-painted, or self striping. The solid stuff has a definite purple shade.
dd and I are heading to the Creativ Festival in Mississauga Ontario tomorrow (you can google it) and it will have all sorts of crafts including knitting and crocheting. However are neither dd or I can knit or crochet, we will probably be skimming over those booths!!
I am going through a purple phase as well.

I have a secret love of purple and am currently knitting a purple (a lighter dusty shade) cardigan.
