This is a swap I signed up for a little while ago on swap-bot, the idea was to send three skeins (300 yards minimum) of “posh yarn” ie – natural fibres, in Spring time colours and look what I got from my swap partner Valerie

These yarns are lovely bright colours and the combination reminds me of crocuses – blue and purple flowers and green leaves – I may have to combine them all in a crochet or entrelac scarf or something – guaranteed to brighten things up

The yarns are –

Blue : Lana Grossa Cool Wool Merino 2000 , it’s 100% superfine merino

Green : Sandnes Mandarin Petit, 100% Egyptian cotton made in Norway

Purple : Misti Alpaca Suri Silk,  80% Baby Suri Alpaca 20% Silk

All three of these yarns are incredibly soft, especially the Alpaca Silk which I cannot decribe how soft it is…I just want to sit stroking it.

I’m really taken with the idea of some sort of scarf or throw which incorporates all three of these colours….any suggestions gratefully received.
