Fiber of the Week - June 30, 2010

What a treat! My favorite yarn in the whole world is the fiber of the week. It's Rayon Metallic by Blue Heron and it's 20% off. If you are not familiar with this yarn, it's hand-dyed, 88% rayon and 12% metallic. The metallic thread does not show up well in the photos, but it is much less subtle in person. Because this is a rayon yarn, it is shiny and slinky. If this yarn were a person, it would be a ballroom dancer, but not an amateur, definitely a world-class professional! Currently available in 44 of Blue Heron's magnificent colorways. If you are a Ravelry member, please look at some of the projects made from this yarn for inspiration.
