My Sheep's Hot Flash

Over at the "Cold Sheeping" support thread I fessed up that my sheep had a major Hot flash. Well I didn't want to post all the picture (many pictures) that showed what I bought over there but some wanted to see so I decided to make a blog post about it. (Very picture heavy)



This is what started it all. 5 balls of Cascade 220 in black for Skywalker's new sweater. As you will see these 5 little balls opened the flood gates.

In no order what so ever here we go:

Fleece Artist merino2/6 in ebony


Dream in Color Smooshy in "Good Luck Jade"


Dream in Color Baby in "November Muse"


Malabrigo Silky Merino in "Velvet Grapes" (to go with the other 4 I have)


LB Cashwool in "Charcoal"


Universal Yarn Cotton Supreme in "Brown"


Knit Picks Stroll Sport in "Clematis Heather"








Knit Picks Comfy fingering in assorted colors Marlin, semolina, honeydew, lilac, peony, peapod , and flamingo


Knit Picks Felici sport in "Sorcery"


Knit Picks Felici in "Rainbow"


Hand Maiden Sea Silk in "BLue Lagoon"


Dream in Color Starry in "Dusky Aurora" (it has real silver threads in it!)


Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted in "Whitewater"


Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport in "Black Purl"


Gale's Art BFL/silk in Stormy Seas (the only fiber I bought)

Well that is almost all of it. I am missing picture of 2 yarns and for some reason they went poof! One is just like the Clematis Heather except it is in worsted weight (4 balls of that one) and the other is also from Knit Picks. It is Elegance, which is a alpaca silk mix I believe in Barn Red (also 4 balls)

So there you go my splurge. All that yarn is equal to the amount I knitted last year. 61 balls or 12,761 yards or 7.25 miles. Oh boy!

ETA: I also bought hanks of Knit picks Bare to dye, but I didn't think you wanted to see that.
