J’aime beaucoup le mixage des 2 laines choisies. L’effet poilu est comme désiré. Je n’ai pas trop réagi, mais on m’a vendue trop de laine que je devrai rapporter bientôt. Je voulais faire La Tuque seulement et j’ai assez de fourniture pour faire le bonnet, le plastron et les poignets. Je n’ai peut-être pas été assez clair ??

Kid in a candy store

While visiting Montreal, accidentally walked by the shop in Mile End. So many beautiful yarns. Could have taken one of each.

Drops - Kid Silk

Un beau projet de chandail à venir. Le fil doublera un fil fingering.

Tellement douce!

Agréable à tricoter et vraiment douce. Associée à une autre laine elle rehausse le tricot

Super belle

La laine est très douce, la couleur très belle. C'est un plaisir de la tricotter.
