{New Yarn!}

As a student knitter, I'm often left to wonder, "How cool really are all those popular yarns?" You know the ones that everyone talks about like Socks That Rock, Malabrigio, Lorna's Lace, and of course Noro.

All the Noro colours are so gorgeous! But because these beauties are typically one skein for $20 I am usually left with my imagination when I try to think of how they feel and the projects they could be used for... until I was stash surfing on Ravelry and I saw 10 skeins of Noro Kureyon for $20!!


I love the natural colour way! To my delight the lovely woman who sold me all this yarn at such a fantastic price sent an extra skein of Noro sock yarn!


and a Noro book!
I am one happy Student Knitter! :D

  1. Holy moly! That's an amazing deal! Do you have any ideas about how you will use the natural colored yarn?

  2. Wow! I'm jealous of your amazing deal! The sock yarn along is usually like $18, depending on where you get it.

    And, although I'm usually so in love with all the different colorways of Noro, I'm really loving the natural shades of these skeins. Can't wait to see what you make of it!

  3. I'm not entirely too sure yet, but I think I'll be stretching it over several projects. Maybe a hat with some fake-isle? A purse? Usually I'm not a fan, but I'm sure I could find something cool. :)

  5. I hope you tell us exactly how they feel when you knit with them! I'm curious too, but not curious enough to pay a fortune for these yarns.
