Waaaaaaaaaant!
Mar. 26th, 2008 04:12 pmSo I'm looking around for wool (I know, I know!), because I don't have enough of any one colour to make the Heere be Dragone shawl, and the most of the online retailers I know are only carrying the very expensive Rowan Kidsilk Haze in solid colours. All of the other beautiful (and equally expensive!) imported lace yarns are in various variegates. One store had some mint green on sale, but really: who wants a mint green dragon shawl?
And then, I stumbled across Heirloom Knitting.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mokatiki, I forbid you to look at this site! You will break out in hives and whimper!
TONS of lace wool. NOT expensive. I could make this shawl for as little as £14 in materials if I were willing to go with white/ecru, about £16 if I go with some deliciously yummy looking merino lace wool from Jamiesons. I thought I was looking at £50-60 worth of materials to make this, and that I was going to have to put it off for a looong time.
And they take PayPal!
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
The whole page is fabulous.
What colour should I make it in? :-D
