Since I had to get yarn for OC's hat, obviously I got some new goodies for my always growing stash. I always buy stuff when I visit Romni Wools. This time I bought Cascade 220 heather, Cascade Eco + in two colourways and Rowan kidsilk night. I didn't expect to buy the kidsilk yarn, but they were on sale and I've never knitted with kidsilk night before, so I had to try it. I bought two skeins of the kidsilk night yarn and I'm planning on using the yarn for a small shawl.

the other new yarn from my stash are the Rowan pure wool 4ply and the Briggs and little heritage yarn. I got both from a swap with another Canadian knitter from Newfoundland .The Rowan yarn came with the Rowan international membership, the colour i received in the mail was avocado green, there's no way I can wear that colour, so i swap with Kim for the cameo colourway. Not sure what will I do with the yarn, but it does suit me better than avocado green. she also gave me two skeins of Briggs and little heritage for me to try.

I don't think I can handle the rowan kidsilk night in such fine yarn. I like the green of cascade eco.
