100% Fingering Mulberry Silk - 50gr/200m

Pure luxury and pure softness :)

Away for two weeks...

I'll be away from home for 2 weeks starting monday. I will bring some yarns with me and can continue to sell. But look at Shipping profile of the yarns please. I will update the ones I'm not bringing with me with different shipping days. This weekend orders can still be shipped on monday. If you order something I don't have with me, it will only be shipped the on March 19th first thing in the morning :)
For this inconvenience, I will accept RESERVATIONS for the yarns I can't ship before the 19th and will deactivate them on my Etsy and other shops.
But you can continue to contact me, if you have some doubts, as always :)
Some of the yarns I will bring with me (and a few more):

NEW! Hand Died Yarn - New Bluefaced Leicester wool - Fingering - 100gr/400m - UPDATE!

This one is a superwash a little thiner than the old one. The colours are a lighter version of my last alpaca/silk. The difference is that this one is not variegated, the colors tones are mixed along the yarns. First I thought it was the new australian wool, but after it completely dryed and looked my stock carefully, found out I had an extra bluefaced pack and 1 less australian merino...
But the yarn is still great and soft :)

New 70% Baby Alpaca/ 30% Mulberry Silk still drying...

Here is my next hand dyed yarn, still drying and what looks brown is plum. No browns in the yarn...
I don't even know how to call it, it has several colors from silver grey to plum...It was totally improvised...

My New Hand Dyed Yarn...Oxblood - Brownish Red . 70% Alpaga/30% Mulberry Silk.

The Fine Lace 100% Mulberry Silk is already gone somewhere in France and my supplier does  not have 100% Silk Fine Lace :(

So I did another Oxblood with Baby Alpaca and Mulberry silk, the closest I have to get the shine from the first one in lace version...

Of course, red is never the same with wool as it is with pure silk but I like the result.
Its a semi solid with some few darker hints and still have good shine from the silk. Beautiful :)

(Took the pictures away from the sun, at the end of the day, to show better the true colour.)
