We expanded our Swans Island spectrum a bit, but with some self control--a difficult task in the face of Swans Island's soft, squishy, organic merino yarns. Upon reordering colors whose numbers were dwindling, we pulled out the colorcard to see if we'd missed any. That's when we gave in. We have room for a few new colors, right? Well: just two.
I just finished a sweater in the Swans Island Organic Merino Fingering, and while it was blocking, I bought another skein to play with, so I speak from personal experience: this is very special yarn. The care that went into its production is evident in the skein as well as in the finished knitted garment. Perhaps these new colors will inspire you to give Swans Island a try, and perhaps their beautiful pattern support will do the same. Come by the shop to take a peek.
The red is a great one, I love this color. And the blue is very tender...
