Ooooh, the midnight blue is scrumptious. I can't wait to see what you make with it, and I think I want some of the same yarn, too. Yum.

Ooh, pretty! That dark blue is absolutely gorgeous.

Eeps! The Schaefer Yarn is named after me! That must mean that I should buy it =)

These colors are gorgeous, Kathy. Can't wait to see what they become!

Purr. Thanks for this very poetic juxtaposition.

They are lovely. Just gorgeous. And the pictures are so good, I swear I can feel them!

Posted by: SallyA on March 6, 2009 02:51 PM

They are amazing and now I keep hitting refresh to see what you are going to do with them. I am very impatient so let's get on with it. What are they going to be??

Posted by: Heidi on March 6, 2009 04:29 PM

Tantalizing! And gorgeous!

Posted by: Cathy-Cate on March 6, 2009 09:30 PM

Those are two gorgeous yarns! I have yarn envy, but shouldn't buy more laceweight until I have finished some of the laceweight I left out for specific projects.

I have the Schaefer Andrea in Greenjeans and have never settled on a project worthy of it. Can't wait to see what you select. Frankly the picture doesn't do it justice! Silvery green.

How in the world did you get the 100% silk yarn to wind on a ball winder? I tried and it was a disaster!

Posted by: Nicole on March 9, 2009 02:23 PM

not about the lace, but thought of you when I saw this:
