KCBW6. Day 1: If you were a yarn...
If I were a yarn what type would I be?
After spending way too much time thinking about this I plumped for something I am working with currently - on a WIP freshly out of hibernation.
Shilasdair Luxury DK is a fabulous British yarn. Like me it is robust and practical, yet given to moments of luxury and self indulgent. I am currently knitting a modified Mitered Crosses blanket in it and I love that the range of beautiful natural-dyed colours take inspiration from the natural world.
I am adopting a production line approach at the moment and knitting as many squares as I can get out of 1 skein - usually 5 or 6 and then adding the cream border to them all. All ends must be woven in before the finished squares are allowed into the storage box.

My current favourite is the Uig Sea Green and I can't wait to get onto these squares next.
