Flaxen silk DK
The exact colour I wanted and it arrived within 4 days of ordering. I have finished the gauge swatch and got guage for the pattern that used this yarn. However I am now in Tahiti so not attempting any DK knitting. It awaits my return.

Beautiful yarn
Very pleased with my purchase and preparing to make a scarf using the yarn. Lovely colors. I plan to give my sister the sock blank for a project. I thought the shipping was fast.
