eye candy from Uruguay

Just wanted to post a couple of pictures of my latest acquisition. 100purewool. Purewool isn't known for it's exactness in dye. The pictures on the website frequently are not what you receive. Nevertheless, the stuff is so soft I want to roll in it! After each I'll post the picture that they have on their website for you to compare yourself.


2 skeins of single ply worsted weight black 218 yards each







2 skeins of single ply worsted weight in the candy colorway 218 yards each. This is the yarn that DD chose from a picture but when it arrived, doesn't have enough pink to suit her.














3 skeins single ply worsted weight in the giotto colorway 218 yards each








My first lace weight - single ply 950 yards each. On the left is the choir colorway and on the right lace violet.












And last but not least 10 luscious skeins of worsted 3 ply 218 yards undyed. It should pill much less than the single ply. :-)



So there you have it. Decide for yourself how accurate the pictures are to the stuff IRL....

happy crafting
