I couldn't resist any longer picking up a hook to play with this new Stitch Nation Yarn. This is the Full O' Sheep variety. 100% Peruvian Wool. But it's 100% Affordable too! I think it's going to retail around $4.99 a skein. Wow. I deliberately used a big hook, an N/10.mm because I'm going to felt it! Let's see what happens! It's in the front loading washing machine now with jeans and some hot water. I'll try to post a photo later today of the "after". I'm thinking about turning this into a scarf for my SIL, ya know, the one who didn't get the Old Shale Knit scarf because I ran out of yarn? This color is "Passion Fruit" but you can see the colors above, beautiful rich colors.

Hi Ellen,
Thanks for telling us about the yarn... I like the wool yarns... but they felt too easily. I must be doing something wrong. HOw do wash something made of wool and NOT felt?
Susan
That is a Redheart yarn?! It looks great. Can't wait to see what the felt looks like.
Oh that is beautiful! More yarn to buy, yippie!!!
