Brooks Farm Yarn Four Play
50% wool/50% Silk
270 yds.
I got 4 skeins to possibly finally make one of these! So soft and squishy, it was hard to choose a colorway. Of course the sample Clapotis yarn wasn't there, sigh...so this had to do. No idea on the colorway...no name on the tag.
I tried both inside and outside lighting. These are the best from both. I like the neutral shades and it will go with a lot of my clothes. Hmmm guess I know what will be good long car ride (12hrs each day) knitting huh?
I'll be sewing a lot this 3 day weekend. I should have a needlecase update Sunday or Monday!

Lookit that sheen! Ahhh, silk.
Brooks Farm is very high on my list of MUST SEE at Stitches. That's gorgeous!!
That is beautiful!
Mmmmm… Brooks Farm…
I got the Acero for the exact same thing! Mine'll knit up a little smaller, but that's cool.
That will turn into a beautiful Clap! Brooks Farm is also on my list to try, and the silk makes it so smooth looking.
Can't wait for your shop update, I missed out on the first batch.
Yeah Brooks farm booth did make me like a moth to a flame when I went to the flea-market fiber fest.
Is it maybe "Glory" colored?
These are great colors indeed!
You are going to enjoy this knit in the car. I bet it's going to be fun to see the way these colors knit up too. You captured great photos of this yarn.
Gorgeous color! I Love it!
It'll definitely be a very nice clapotis for sure!
Happy knitting!
Good luck with your car rides!
I really LOVE this yarn, the sheen and the subtle colours!! Beautiful!! :)
I really love the neutral colors. I can't wait to see how it comes out!
That would make a lovely Clapotis! The colors are very similar to Aslan, which is the color I picked for my mother's. It's very elegant and she wears it everywhere.
Yeah, thats going to make a fabulous clapotis. I always imagined it in more natural, muted colors. I love your taste!
Sew away! I will be thinking of you. I have spent most of the weekend behind my sewing machine as well. Glad you like your mini zip! Can't wait to see your updates!
Oh, that's lovely. I like the soft warm colors.
These colors are totally right up my alley! Love it!
