What a yarn week it was. I got quite a bit of yarn this week. I had to get more colors from the Sanguine Gryphon. After finishing the Maelstrom sock, I am so in love with this yarn.
From the Loopy Ewe, I got Bugga in Familiar Bluet and Skinny Bugga in Painted Damsel.
From the Sanguine Gryphon direct, I got Red Spotted Purple Butterfly and Charaxes Tiridate both in Bugga.
I also got quite a bit of yarn from my LYS, The Knitter’s Edge. I am planning on working on squares for the Great American Afghan, so I am using Plymouth Select from Plymouth yarns in color 35 a really pretty green. Two of my other knitting friends are also going to knit this afghan. We are going to be picking our own squares from the three afghan books.
King George yarn was on sale, so I got two skeins of color 2786 (grey) to knit a hat. The yarn is a baby alpaca, merino, and cashmere mix.
And, I bought on a whim, this pretty ribbon yarn to knit two scarves. It comes out like a potato chip scarf only you don’t have to do as much knitting. I got color 08 (black and grey) and color 06 (green and purple). I am going to try to cast on for one of these scarves this week and will take pictures.
I’m was really excited to buy this cool knitting bag by Laurel Burch. It is such a big size that I needed and the colors are perfect. The price was right too. This bag will come in handy since I have so much yarn to knit up. Don’t you think?
Now, off to knit so I can post some pictures later this week.

I just saw the scarves made w/the ribbon yarn...OMG they were to jump up and down for! Totally beautiful and the LYS had 70 skeins, gone in less than 10 minutes. I am waiting for the re-order, can't wait to see your photos!
That Flounce is funny stuff! I really like the bluet, but I love the bag!
