A beautiful surprise in the mail

Look at what arrived over the weekend for me! I love this beautiful scarf. Jennifer knitted this for me after meeting her and her lovely family when they toured the alpaca ranch this fall. We had a fun afternoon and at the end of the tour we bartered gloves for her knitting me this scarf. I think I found a knitter for my store! The problem is I really like it and don’t want to sell it but I can’t keep everything. This is made from 100% suri yarn that I bought from a friend of mine who did not like how it turned out. I loved it so bought the whole batch from her.

100% suri yarn

Very pretty and Jennifer recommended knitting with wood or bamboo needles. She said the yarn is so silky it slides off the metal or plastic too easily and stitches could be dropped.
