Seasilk



I had the unique opportunity to knit a store sample for Yarn Forward. Carol and Roger and handed over a skein of pink and brown Seasilk that reminded me of truffles, for some reason. I knit the scarf pattern that comes with the Seasilk in about three days. It was a lot of knitting for three days. I didn't actually get anything else done during those three days. The finished product is spectacular and the lace pattern was easy to memorize. I'm not sold on the yarn itself, though. I found it hard on the hands, and it smelled like leather even after it had been blocked.
