Science Fantasy

Whoa almost forgot yarn pr0n Friday! And I have just the thing.

In my magic loop class, a skein of hand-dyed sock yarn was included in the class fee. We all got to choose our own color from the selection that our lovely teacher brought. One colorway leapt out at me.

I surveyed, I saw, I snatched. It was like everything I ever wanted in a yarn color at that moment.

When I looked at the name, it was like it was meant to be. SCIENCE FICTION.

I know I'm more of a fantasy fan than a scifi fan, but I'm fairly equal-opportunity. Of anyone in that room, that yarn wanted to go home with me most of all. It told me so.

Ohhh...that yarn is delicious! Not being a knitter, though one day I aspire to be (sigh, so many things to try, so little time!). It's like a creamy, raspberry, sunset dreamscape!
Thanks, too, for the lovely comment on my blog!
