[Knitting] Zauberball!

I picked up this lovely wool on Wednesday at I Knit London, and now I'm thinking I may get a second ball of it if they still have it on Saturday.

Zauberball translates to 'magic ball', and I think that even in the ball it live up to its name. It's just alive with possibilities, isn't it? The wool comes in an astounding array of colours, not all of them this bright, I promise!

I'm sorry for the blurry photo, iPhone, iPhone, blah, blah, blah, but I really love this wool and the colours are fantastic. It will make up into very long stripes that fade into one another gradually, and right now I'm trying to decide what to make with it. Right now, I'm thinking of the Flit & Float Scarf from this spring's Knitty, or maybe....

Well, you know where I live... Or they probably have it at Get Knitted. Caution: it's pricey. £11/100g at IKL.

Hm, possibly I'm misremembering. That sounds like a big discrepancy, even between London Boutique and Online Shop (whose webpage was busted last time I tried it). Gossip, unfortunately, is that K&C are in trouble and not fulfilling orders very well atm, but that's just the scuttle on Ravelry; I have never ordered from them.
