It is all about the colors. I am quickly popping in to write a few lines. After many requests on which colors I used of the
Ideal yarn from Bergere de France for my
Gypsy blanket I have now collected them for you. I used ALL of the 20 colors shown above. Unfortunately some of the colours are out of stock and I am not sure if they will be re-stocked again... Like the apricot orange and mint green and the sea turquoise... Bummer... The good news are that
Bergere de France French homepage currently are having
a sale on this wonderful Ideal yarn. So pop over there and take your chance. I certainly will. It is only 2.71 EUR (original price 3.39 EUR). On the US site you pay 8.30 USD per ball and on the UK site you pay 3.20 GBP so this is absolutely a GREAT price.
And while I am here let me just say I had a wonderful weekend with my LOVE. I have had some technical difficulties this week which has been holding me off from blogging but now things seem to be working again. I will post more about it later but for now a little sneak peak of my newest WiP, inspired by this wonderful Ideal yarn...
I am back to stripes and loving it. At first I wasn't happy with the purple and beige at the end and decided to frog it. Now I am more happy adding a orange red stripe followed by other colors instead. I'll show you more of this after the weekend.
Got to take off for work but speak soon. Hope all is well.

Your gypsy blanket is wonderful! I was wondering which colours you used.
ReplyDeleteHello Annette, the colors are really so nice! I love the first and the third line :) Yes, they are very different, but the first line is nice for boyish quilt or wintry quilt, and the third line is ideal for autumn quilt or poncho :)
