possessed!

indeed!


i certainly must be, or must have been when i purchased this yarn!


i have no idea what possessed me at the time to choose this colorway!  i purchased this yarn at the 2009 sock summit from huckleberry knits - an indie dyer from bellingham, washington - and enjoyed the feel and hand of the yarn (willow fingering) as i was knitting this shawl (karen  - designed by amy swenson - indigirl.com). the colorway is called endicott west.




apparently, i'm still possessed as this is a yarn i picked up at the 2011 sock summit - indigo moon, fingering weight 100% merino wool in the color starlight. the shawl is an adaptation of the live oak shawlette by romi hill.




the oregon flock and fiber festival is fast approaching and the question is: "will i once again hear a voice telling me to choose a multi-colored yarn or can i possibly choose a yarn that is a solid or semi-solid shade of one color?" only time will tell!
