No indication of the silk
I don’t like this yarn. It is not shiny or soft. Actually rather coarse. I’m disappointed.

mouth watering
This is the first time I've ordered BFL+Silk Fine. I added it to my Tough Love Sock order - just to see (and feel). I think it was the Black-faced Leicester that tempted me (and of course silk!). I chose Cassis - just 1 x 100g skein. And right now I'm not sure what I will knit - but I do keep admiring it and wondering - mouth watering - fingers tingling. The great folks at sweetgeorgia were swift (as always) to respond to my enquiry about links to possibilities for this luscious yarn. So, it isn't just about product - it's about the people too.
