Knitter's Review
July 22, 2004


Handspun on a vintage Royal Worcester saucerWe knitters sure are a crazy bunch. Why else would I be going giddy over a hank of cashmere when it's 94 degrees outside?

But that's exactly what happened this week when I visited my local yarn shop and discovered Royal Cashmere, a 100% cashmere cable yarn from Plymouth Yarn. Naturally, I had to take it out for a test knit!

I've just added a limited batch of tortoise-shell needlesizers featuring a lovely vintage yellow glass bead with fine white detailing.

What do you do when you finish one project and have half a skein of yarn left?
