The color is so peaceful and the texture is uneven enough to add character but still be perfectly knitable. I wish I were better at spinning. And yes, I'd say your stash had definitely been enhanced - gorgeous stuff. .-= On her own blog, Anne Campbell just said ..<a href="http://knitterlyanne.wordpress.com/2010/05/18/summer-knitting/" rel="nofollow">Summer Knitting</a> =-.
