I am having a few technical difficulties with EBay and probably won't have the yarn on EBay till the weekend (if there is any left). So you have till then to buy it here. This is how it works. On Ebay, the bidding will start at AU$14 per skein. I will sell to anyone who offers me $14 or more each. I check my email every day and will reply to the highest bidder confirming the sale. Once that happens, the sale is final and no higher bids for the same yarn will be taken. I will update this post from time to time.
They are approximately 100g each (have I mentioned that already?). Since they are all approzimately the same weight, you will get more yardage out of the thinner yarn. They are all sock weight and are meant to be knitted on sock needles between 2.0mm and 3.0mm. Well, the tags say 3.0mm or 3.25mm but I find that at 3.0mm the socks are not as hardwearng as they could be. All the yarn is machine washable 100%wool. The handle is nice and soft and a beauty to knit with.
First up - Berry splash. This is 4ply wool to all you Aussies. Recommended needle size is 3.25mm. There are regular splashes of colour on a background of variegated pinks. There are two pictures because I was tring to get the colour right.
I have 1 skein left
Berry Sprinkle - This has random splashes of colour. The colours are very similar to that of Berry Splash, but the splashes are random rather than regular.
This is 3ply wool (recommended needle size 3.00mm)
I have 2 skeins left
Forest Floor- This has random splashes of colour. The dyemethod is similar to that of Berry Sprinkle, but the colours are different, as is obvious.
This is 3ply wool (recommended needle size 3.00mm)
I have 2 skeins left
Mean green - As ou can see, the colours consist of different shades of green blending into one another. It is 3ply yarn (recommended needle size 3.00mm)
I have 1 skein left
Old Fern - Ok, the colour is not 100% accurate in this picture. there is a very slight green tinge that is not showing through on the lighter end, at least not on my monitor. The colours blend into each other like the colours of Mean Green. This is 4ply yarn (recommended needle size 3.25mm). I have 2 skeins left.
Purple Wave - The purple is not showing through as well as it should. It's less blue-is and more purplish than in the picture. This is 4ply yarn (recommended needle size 3.25mm)
I have 2 skeins left
Ok, while I am at it I have some other yarn for sale too. Hmm.. maybe I should start a little enterprise business of my own!
I have this in two lots - 5ply (sport weight) and 8ply (dk). Needle sizes are 3.75mm and 4mm respectively. Each lot weighs 200g. The price per skein is AU$20.
This is 5ply (sport weight) yarn. The skein weighs 200g and I am also asking for AU$20 for this skein. The brown tones are not showing up well. It's approximately the colour of milk chocolate with darker and lighter areas that blend into each other,
Another 200g skein of 8ply (dk) yarn. Also priced at AU$20.
I called this 'aubergine' because it is a lovely purple and teal, like aubergines. It is 8ply (dk) yarn and is also priced at AU$20.
Postage in Australia will be whatever Australia post charges. Wherever possible, I use the post packs. Postage to anywhere else in the world will be approximately AU$10 for up to 200g of yarn and about $15 for up to 400g of yarn. If I get charged less than that, I'll let you know the difference and refund the difference.
Off to spinning class now. BYE!
