The silk merino lace yarns are ALL stunning! I particularly love Blaze and Smoke and Mirrors. Blaze has that gorgeous, bright, almost juicy quality, it reminds me of the Clementines that are so popular at this time of year! Smoke and Mirrors looks so soft and sleek and cozy, like it would make the perfect shawlette for snuggling up during the cold months and looking elegant while staying warm! :D
Oh my, the tussah silk sliver in storm in a teacup is gorgeous!
And I love all the shades of the lace yarn, especially sky! Just beautiful...
"Smoke and Mirrors" would make a lovely evening shawl!
Really! We have to pick one thing! I love everything! Especially the lace yarn in sky.

The silk/merino in "lime sorbet" looks delicious. And so is the hydrangea top.

"Sky" is the peeeerfect shade of blue. Absolutely perfect. <3
I love the lime sorbet colorway in silk-merino 2 play lace yarn. The colors are so fresh.
I'm in love with that Tussah silk!
FBed and Tweeted.
I usually gravitate towards blue, but for some reason the Merino/Silk laceweight in the "Blaze" colorway really caught my eye. All of it is rather beautiful, though!

Ohhh my.
The silver 50g tussah silk is so pretty! I may just have to snag it for myself...
The silk/merino yarn in sky has caught my eye.
The silk/merino lace yarn in sky is just begging to be made into a silky soft project. How beautiful it is!
I love the 50/50 silk merino in 'lime sorbet'
I really love you 150g graduated merino sliver in hydrangea.
I love "Smoke and Mirrors" merino/silk blend yarn. I can see it in a shawl, hat, or fingerless mitts.
Storm In A Teacup is gorgeous!
I love the yarn in Smoke and Mirrors, but that Sky is gorgeous, too. Looking at the fiber makes me want to learn to spin.
LOVE the lime sorbet!

I'm in love wtih 50/50 merino silk lace in blaze. I've never knit lace and am dying to try!
Gorgeous yarn offering! Also admire the merino/silk in blaze. :)
The merino sliver in hydrangea is goooorrrrgeous. I love blues and purples and this is really pretty.
Everything is beautiful, but the first thing that caught my eye was "150g graduated merino sliver in hydrangea." I love the colors and the long, graduated color change :-)
I really love 150g the graduated merino sliver in poppy shock!
Um, her stuff is so gorgeous I drooled. Definitely if I could buy one skein from her shop it would be the merino silk lace in sky. Delicious!
Love the 150g graduated merino sliver in hydrangea
What amazing colors! I looove the Storm in a Teacup silk.
love the colors she does have but smoke and mirrors.....
Wow. The smoke and mirrors and the lime sorbet are just gorgeous; I'd have a tough time choosing between those two. I'd love to try my hand at lace sooner rather than later.
I love the merino silk in blaze, but all the yarn is yummy.
Oooh, I love the graduated merino in Poppy Shock! I could really use some sunshine
I think Smoke and Mirrors would be gorgeous made up using beads.

There's nothing I like more than wool and silk. Delicious! This one - 50/50 silk/merino lace yarn in sky - the colors are out of this world! How do they do it? Clever Kiwis!
Wow, did everyone buy the shop out? There are only eight items left, and I love them all! My favorites are the merino-silk sliver in Storm in a Teacup, as well as the Smoke and Mirrors laceweight. Lovely!
This is beautiful yarn. Especially like the blaze - priced great also. DZupko
The 50/50 silk/merino blend in lime sorbet is stunning. It would make a beautiful shawl.
I love the lace in Blaze and the gray as well! Need to find a money tree!!
I want lace in that "Store in a Teacup! Oh my!!! Better get my spinning skills up to snuf :)
Silky Merino? Please, I just want to touch it. I'm a color blue person, so Sky does it for me. I'm might just cuddle with it for a few days should I end up with it at my house. I'd take really good care of it! Promise!!! I'd knit it up into a shawl and then it could cuddle with me!
The Blaze merino silk yarn looks so pretty, I would love to see it in person
I actually went "aaaahhhhhh" when I looked at the colorway that she describes as the colors of the sky just before the sun dips below the horizon. Maybe Santa will bring it to me?
I heart the merino silk lace in blaze
and the tussah silk is divvvinnee!
.50/50 merino/silk lace yarn in smoke and mirrors is a wonderful midtone grey that would look so well with so many colors.
I absolutely love the tussah silk sliver in storm in a teacup! What great colors and what a great name for them!
Oooh, I'll take it, please!
I like lime sorbet!

Ooo the hydrangea colour is wonderful :) some beautiful sold items there too!
oh my goodness! I LOVE graduated colors...I wonder if they spin up that way too?? Especially the hydrangea.
The graduated sliver in Hydrangea and the lace yarn in Sky are both gorgeous!
150g graduated merino sliver in hydrangea is absolutely beautiful!
the poppy shock is amazing
*sigh* pretty. *sigh* merino *sigh* silk *sigh* LACE! *sigh lace...* Need I say more
Loving the Merino/Silk Lace yarn in Smoke and Mirrors tonight!
OMG the merino sliver in Hydrangea is gorgeous! I love the graduated blueness.
I fell in love with Tussah Silk Sliver in "Storm in a Teacup". The colors say it all -- just gorgeous -- I know it would be a dream to spin.
I'm all about orange lately! Dig the Blaze colorway.
Because the shop was sparse, I went to sold items and there it was...150g graduated merino sliver in middle earth. Gorgeous!
Love the 50/50 merino silk in any of the colorways! They are all beautiful!
The lace yarns are all very pretty - I especially like the blaze.
Wow that whole shop is great, my favorite is the lime sorbet colorway of the lace for sure, but I'm always partial to greens ;)
Love the lime sorbet! It seems like the drearier winter gets around here, the more I crave gorgeous shades of green.
I am drawn again to the blue lace yarn, Sky, but that color Blaze is gorgeous, too. Makes me want to knit something with each and then wrap myself up in them! :-)
The graduated merino sliver in hydrangea is a dream. Beautiful...
I tweeted @knititall
On the recent sales...this gorgeous silver skein of 4-ply silk. The 50/50 merino silk in hydrangea is such a gorgeous color too...
Oh the silk merino lime 50/50 is just my color!!
I love the merino top in Poppy Shock
love the listing for 50g tussah silk sliver in storm in a teacup.

The Lime Sorbet is gorgeous!
Smoke and mirrors. There is just something so beautiful about a simple grey. Definitely my pick.
But I do love blue so maybe this skein of lace yarn will end up mine?
My fav is 50/50 merino silk lace in blaze. Very pretty! Thanks, Debbie in Alask
The tussah silk sliver in storm in a teacup is beautiful! I also really like the lace yarn in the sky colorway.
I really like the lace in "smoke and mirrors" and "lime sorbet." I can see them together as stipes in a project!
Her lace yarn is gorgeous :)
My favorite would be the 50/50 in sky blue.

Loving that poppy shock! I wish I was better at spinning the lace weight. I do okay on the singles, but I can't spin my singles tiny enough to do a 2-ply lace. Practice makes perfect, I guess!
I love the silk/merino lace yarn in sky.
i want to pair that gray one with all of them, but the 50/50 silk/merino lace yarn in sky is my favoritest fave in the shop.
