Blue Sky


So much for yarns from the UK - I've just fallen completely in love with Blue Sky Alpaca's. It's the colours.
I especially like the green (which is Alpaca & Silk). I started knitting swatches in it, but X wasn't very sure and kept saying he didn't think it would suit me. Then when I was out shopping I saw a jumper in M&S that was a similar colour. I even had my yarn with me so I could compare & it was EXACTLY the same. So... I tried it on to see if X was right, maybe it would look awful, after all, it is quite a bright green... Inevitably it looked great. I ended up buying the jumper. Doh - now it seems like a waste of time to knit in the Blue Sky Alpaca green when I've already got a jumper in the same colour. And of course X has now admited he's wrong and it looks nice (why did I listen to him? He's COLOURBLIND. Really.).
