I knitted Magnolia from Vintage Style in 1 strand each of Kid Silk Haze and Kid Classic, and it has the most wonderful feel on your bare skin of anything that I have knitted. I was looking at my KSH this morning thinking 8 balls of Kid Classic and I could do another soft, snuggle Magnolia ...... I restrained myself, so far....
aaagh - Kid Ckassic - what is it about THAT yarn - I've never had anything feel so BAD against my skin. It's not fair! I'm going to have a tantrum, because I like the stuff, it just hates me. I'm sure I'll find something else. I've got a feew different colours of KSH - I just need to work out what else will go with it. Maybe I could spin some of that purple that Lilith was drooling over.

Oooh, the yarns are beautiful, I can't wait to see it! I finished mine on saturday and am really pleased with it, although I hated the flower so it was frogged to make way for a smaller one.
I'm also going to knit it again as I have heaps of the bluey green kidsilk left over from Froth. All I have to do is search thru the stash (I have nothing so organised as a notebook - WOW!) for a matching colour...what joy!

Half the fun of this one is choosing what to knit it in.
Oooh pretty yarns! (and a hello from a fellow Glasgow Stitch'n'bitcher) also love the other photos on your blog, cheers, J
