This is the yarn I bought yesterday, 10 skeins of Alice Starmore Scottish Heather.
At first I thought 10 skeins was enough to do anything with, but it turns out they are only 56 grams each, not a hundred, and I am now not sure I can get a me-sized sweater with sleeves out of it.
Even if I throw in some wild fringe.
Squiggle, one of the crazier of the novelty yarns. I hadn't seen any for years, although I did make a scarf holding it with some silk yarn many years ago. I could do a wee bit of a fuzzy collar, couldn't I?
Maybe with all that purple, you could make lighter coloured sleeves? Or make a striped sweater? How do you knit that fuzzy stuff? Looks a bit like tangled wire! : - )
