Some yarn buying happened yesterday, but not in a store. In fact, I don’t think there is a LYS at all in my city. KnitPicks, however, was having a sale (and still is), and it was impossible to resist.
I decided to try a new yarn, hoping for some motivation and inspiration, and the Hawthorne line caught my eye. The Hawthorne yarn is a fingering/sock weight yarn and is composed of 80% superwash fine highland wool and 20% nylon, and every colorway is gorgeous! I hope it’s soft, too, because I got 6 skeins.
Here are pictures of the colorways I purchased:
Aren’t they lovely? I can’t wait to receive them and get to work on some projects!
Have you ever tried this line of KnitPicks yarn? If so, what did you think?
That’s all for today, I think. Thank you for stopping by!
not your average crochet

Lovely haul! I’ve tried the Hawthorne line and I really do like it. I’m making a Hitchhiker out of Nob Hill right now and love that there’s no crazy pooling. I also like the springy-ness of the yarn; I really think you’ll enjoy using it.

Great, thank you! I was a little concerned about the possibility of pooling — I’m glad it’s not doing that for you. I’m excited!

I’m LOVING them. I’m working on knitting a crescent shawl with one right now and it’s great — it’s not splitty, no knots at all, and soft!
