Yarn Crush May 2016

May's box, made me so happy, it put two of my favourite things in one box, yarn and beads. It never even occurred to me to knit a necklace but they look stunning, so I plan on trying to the best of my ability to create just about all of them. Who knows when hopefully in June. Just look at those colours??? Lime green and fuchsia, this is a happy girl.




















So, I spent the majority of May untangling my April yarn from Yarn Crush. Seriously, how do yarn dyers do it? My yarn looks like it was hacked up by a cat. Life is so cruel. Sadly I did not get very far with Aprils box due to this, but I did manage to get about halfway which was in my opinion AMAZING.
These are my two cakes, sadly the yarn frayed and snapped into two, thereby leaving me with two cakes, but it all works out.

 This shows you a bit of the colour variation of my dyeing experiment, and just how lovely the shawl (cape) will turn out. I am super happy with the results.

And here it is halfway to completion, with the beads and everything. Just so pretty, and the yarn is 1000% softer being used to knit than it was during untangling.

Beaded knitting skill acquired.

All in all I am happy with my accomplishments and feel great about how much I plan on finishing in June.
