Silk, mmmmmmmmmm silk.........
This is the 'lagoon' colourway from the hand dyed silk at www.hipknits.co.uk.
When I opened the package of 3 skeins (each about 180 yards) I loved it so much I ordered 3 in surf straight away....
How happy? This silk is absolutely gorgeous, so soft and lustrous and the colour is almost luminescent. Shimmering and beautiful. And the colour is more intense than the pic suggests. Now, what to make????

I have seen it and stroked it. It really is more gorgeous even that the photos would have you believe. Mmmmmm silky stuff. Got to have it against your skin methinks, a cami top or (following last night's discussion) possibly even an undergarment?!

Hey Suzanne, I just stumbled across this blog, and what a cool surprise! Have fun with the silk, let me know what it turns into. Love the blog, I've added it to the links page on my website so lots of other knitters can find you too.

Hey girls
Do either of you know a supplier of Cascade yarns in the UK or a worldwide one with reasonable shipping willing to supply UK?
LOL
