I'm currently knitting a shawl in Jaipur Lace in the Emerald Isle colorway and it's going to be stunning. I've knit with several of Wandering Wool's fingering weight bases, and my favorite is Rock Creek Sock. The stitch definition is fantastic. I'm going to order the Cinderella colorway next.

The one that caught my eye today was BFL Sock Yarn - Hand Dyed 75/25 BFL/Nylon Fingering Weight Yarn in Grand Canyon Colorway.

Anonymous said...

WOW...the Wandering Wool Etsy site is beautiful. I don't think there is a color I didn't like. Whoever did the photo shoot for the yarn knows how to bring out the colors. Whoever dye the yarn did a wonderful job of choosing the right colors.
