Yarn in Waiting
Recent purchase at Estes Park Wool Market included only one skein of yarn from Brooks Farm . For years the Brooks Farm people finished their mohair into lovely colorful yarns. But this yarn, called Willow is a cable summer yarn that is 70/30 blend of wool and bamboo. Nice handle.
A simple self fringing shawl pattern was given along with purchase of yarn. You can find this free pattern, along with others, on their website, listed under patterns. So, this lovely yarn is like a lady in waiting.......waiting until she has sufficiently aged!
