A few years ago I ordered a surprise pack from
Colinette, 1 kg green and 1 kg pastel/white shades. A discussion on the Swedish mailing list "Sticklistan" made me look for the photos I had taken. It's beautiful, isn't it?

In the discussion I was asked what I have done with the yarn. I realized that most of it is still in my yarn box, so I picked out the three skeins of "point five" that were in the green pack. I started on a bag on the road to a trade fair in Düsseldorf, for once I wasn't driving so I could knit in the car. It's finished now, but I haven't decided if I will leave it as it is or felt it. I'm afraid that the bag will loose some of the colours and the sheen if I felt it. I will try with a small sample before I decide. Colinette proposes 15 mm needles for this yarn. I used 8 mm for the bag to get a thick cloth. I love the colours, but not the structure.

Jag tycker de ser såå härliga ut, och det kommer att bli ett sådant paket för min del. Fast viken färg skall man välja?+ Det lutar åt brunt eller grönt. Fast en liten rackare placerad på min axel(ant. Luther) frågar sig vad skall det bli? och vad kan man göra med dessa skeins??
Tack!!Marianne
