Italian cottons making me giddy! It's ridiculous I know, but I look at these beautiful yarns & I get butterflies...this used to happen when I'd walk into a fashion store, perhaps it's my age..geez is that sad?!
I've been drooling over this for quite some time but it's always been so expensive..until today, YAY for a bargain!! I picked up as many of these gorgeous balls as I could manage & dreamed the whole way home of what I might do with them...
I've 3 different hooks on the go, different sizes, different stitches trying to decide on what to create with this gorgeous cotton. What I'm finding more & more is that I like simplicity, perhaps I need to stop thinking so much about it...
Don't expect great things, it's all looking a bit boring, but still I love it...

Gorgeous yarn! I guess now would be a good time to tell you I'm doing a wool giveaway on my blog. You certainly look like you'd be able to enjoy it!

I think whatever you make with them will be magical..just because the yarn is so good! Great that you found them on sale..good timing.
ReplyDeleteBoring? Nope. Let the yarn sing!
