fall knitting
My fiddlesticks knitting country silk yarn has finally arrived! I ordered two large skeins of the bright earth colourway, thinking it might be something like the colours of fall in the Yukon. This pic was taken on a recent trip to Keno City, Yukon. The yarn has more pink than I'd expected, but I'm pretty happy with it. Maybe it's got a bit more fireweek than tundra...
And here's the progress so far...(note this year's cranberry harvest to the left)
The yarn ended up being quite a different gauge than suggested, so we'll see how this goes. I'm a couple of days away from the first fitting - wish me luck!

I love the color too! I wanted to get some of this yarm when I saw your beautiful-yrt-unfinished piece, but I don't see it on the Fiddlesticks website. What gives?
