Yarn Pron brought to you by my father

Yes i know i promised yarn pics but welll the weather has been shoddy and well some of this i only got today!!
Firstly we have the stuff bought the other day. Dark Aran from New Lanark for to possibly make a skirt but if that goes horribly, it will become something else.

Next, i finally managed to get to the shop in West Calder that has been taunting me for so long, lovely lovely woman! Anyway i went mainly for a nebby but also to get some colinette to make a birthday pressie. Its graffiti and zero i think, i forget so quickly

Then i saw some very very pretty Patons Jet a wool/alpaca mix, i had not come across it before but it was so pretty calling to me. I didnt know what i would do with it but i wanted more than a few balls tho i was swithering over the spending of the money, then father piped up from his bored position in the corner that if i wanted wool he would buy it (isnt he nice), i had a look at a pattern book found a nice cardi but working out prices was gonna be quite a lot but father said feck it you might as well get something nice and thus it was bought, the nice lady gave us the pattern and a ball free cos we bought so much! anyway here it is v-prettyIts actually more tweedy than the pic allows.

You'll notice i have gone a bit rural with my pics, thats what being at home and having garden access does to you!

Great yarn and purty red dogwood! That's my favorite thing on top of one of my favorite plants...
