April Yarnbox

April 23, 2014

I got my Yarnbox today!! :D But before I say more, I’d better mention that if you don’t want spoilers, don’t click the read more button!

Okay, you’ve been warned!

This month’s yarn is by Fyberspates, a dyer in the U.K. that I’ve been wanting to try for awhile now. They sent their Vivacious DK baseĀ for this month’s boxes, and it’s beautiful. It’s a little bit heavy for a DK weight technically, being 218yds/100g, but that’s okay. The look and feel is really nice, and the colorway I got, Lavender Haze, is lovely. However, I have a lot of purple yarn, so I’m trading for one of the other colorways, Deep Forest. In the mean time, though, I will enjoy this bright, cheery purple until it’s time to send it off to its new owner. Oh, right, photos!

Yay, purple!

Fun color for April!

I really like the variation of the purple tones in the yarn. It’s dimensional, not boring at all!

Oh, and the box came with these curious little scissors. They’ll be handy!

    It is so gorgeous. I stepped out of the Yarnbox train after six months, and I deeply regret doing this. I’m now on the waiting list again, so sorry to have missed Fyberspates, I would have loved to try it as well. Cute scissors too. A great Yarnbox. (And I love your pictures)

      Ooh, I hope you get in soon! I know there are some of this month’s boxes up for sale in the ISO/Destash thread in the Yarnbox Ravelry group (http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/yarnbox/2576667/476-500#491). Maybe you can find one you like on there! :)

      And thanks, I’m glad you like the photos! That’s always very encouraging to hear.
