I am in a purpley phase at the moment , maybe its my age !! Do you know that poem about when you get old? LOL No I think in reality its all the purple heather on the hills at the moment that has inspired me with this colour. Do others of you choose colours that are around you at different times of the year ?
I ended up with over 1,000 yds of DK weight and it is destined to become a more heavy weight stole . I have to say that its not as even as I would wish. I was distracted a few times as I spun outside the van in the evenings either by the scenery or folks who were fascinated by seeing someone spin.There was heather on the hills in Scotland also so this is now my souvenir yarn which will bring back sweet memories of our time there.

Oh, that is a gorgeous colour! I miss the hills and the heather - we have none of either on my little island.
Oh! That does look yummy! Purple goodness! What a great souvenir, I see the heather in the yarn ;-)
Lovely memory yarn. What do you plan to make with it?
I'm in a purple stage too, though I refuse to think it has anything to do with my age. :-)
Isn't it crazy how distractions can effect the outcome. I particularly notice it with the wheel so I'm hoping that with more practice my hands will keep better track of the thickness even when my mind is elsewhere.
