What a Yarn: Day 7 of Knit and Crochet Blog Week

There’s one love that we all share: yarn. On this seventh and final day of Knit and Crochet Blog Week, I am sharing my love of Alafoss Lopi Iceland Fleece by Istex. I love the texture, smell and earthy colours of this pure sheep's wool.

I turn this wonderful yarn into Icelandic sweaters. This is mine.



This is my hubby's:


These sweaters are my favorite to knit.

I've really enjoyed this week of Knit and Crochet blogging. There are so many creative people out there in blog land. I've found new blogs to follow and new fiberistas to admire.

Thanks for spending time with me this week.

Happy Knit and Crochet Blogging!
