Misti colour card 2

Misti colour 2, originally uploaded by knitomatic.

hee-hee, here it is the second shade card.

i didn't order it but i'm looking at shade 20 thinking it would make some really cool socks (there is a shock of acid green in there at the bottom if you look close. shade 1 would make such a gorgeous baby blanket! 6 is cool, i love the magenta with the orange & red. 8 is interesting too, i love pink with brown, it's a really challenging combo. like camouflage for barbies.

Please note that the scanned colours are not true and that most of the colours arebrighter and have more depth. I have shade cards at the store if you want to look up close.

This is a bit of a tease, but not too much of a tease ... New yarns to lust & desire .... Misti Baby Alpaca Worsted Handpaints are coming in mid-December! Same great yarn as the solid colours, same great yardage, but multicoloured and handpainted for your pleasure. mmmm, pleasure .....

i've ordered a handfull of the nicest colours(2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12) but if you want a specific one drop me a line and speak up and I can arrange to special order it for you! On the same tangent, if you want enough to make a garment, let me know and I'll make it happen. Please note that the scanned colours are not true and that most of the colours arebrighter and have more depth. A shadecard is available in the store.

Misti Baby Alpaca Worsted Handpaints ~ should cost approx $21

Opal Hundertwasser Sock Yarn ~ $20

New in this week is Opal Hundertwasser Self Patterning sock yarn! These yarns are inpired by the work of Austrian Artist & Sculptor Freidrich Hundertwasser. Apparently Hundertwasser always wore two different coloured socks! A free spirit, I like that. I'm working on getting the sideways sock pattern seen in the picture, I'll post it as soon as i get it. One ball makes a pair of socks.
