Yarn Pr0n Friday, Hand dyed by Nancy McRay

I bought this in Lansing, Michigan, at Nancy's Woven Art Yarn and Fiber Art Gallery. I'm going to make a shawl for my friend Sharon.

It's a really nice yarn shop with a great yarn selection, and a shrine to Habu!

Y'all know I love me some Habu! I bought two skeins of copper-colored Habu viscose sizing silk and four skeins of matching silk mohair for a shawl for me. Pictures later. I have to buy a card reader first.

I didn't get much knitting done or blog reading - sorry - but I see that y'all have been active. I'll catch up this weekend.

  8. This certainly is Yarn Pron. Art Gallery seems like an appropriate name when it's merchandised like that. The shawl will be gorgeous.
