A Tale of Two Yarns - 2KCBWDAY1


A Tale of Two Yarns – 2KCBWDAY1
Part of any fibre enthusiast’s hobby is an appreciation of yarn. Choose two yarns that you have either used, are in your stash or which you yearn after and capture what it is you love or loathe about them.

It is so difficult to choose only two yarns to write about. I love all my yarn from my stash and there  is much more out there that I'd love to own but I decided to write about two brands of yarn that I am particularly fond of. 
1. Araucania yarns. I love them! Especially the colorful ones. I can never resist them... For each of these skeins I have a project in mind, I just don't have enough time to start. Meantime, I keep stashing more... My favourite of Araucania yarns is Toconao and Ranco and, recently, Ulmo.



2. Rowan yarns. Ok, maybe I'm not very original with this choice but I really love working with Rowan yarns. It's always a source of big pleasure. I believe that quality of Rowan yarns is really great and I've never been disappointed with the finished projects. I'm just about to start Shalom cardigan with Rowan Cocoon.
