Hello,
Still cleaning out my knitting closet.
I'm happy to ship the following yarn, free of charge, just to see it go to someone who might be able to use it.
Three skeins (almost--one skein is slightly broken into) of Cleckheaton Country 8ply Naturals.
Color is a sort of deep pumpkin--a nice, rich pumpkin color with some flecks of brown and cream and maybe grayish blue.
85% wool, 10% acrylic, 5% viscose. 100m per skein (almost 300m total here).
The label says its machine washable.
These skeins would make a fine pair of mittens or socks, I think.
_________
Next, I have two skeins of black wool (with a few flecks of color).
The company is Cestari (Chester Farms in Virginia).
This is 2ply worsted wool.
Each skein has approx 210 yards. (420 total).
I am sure I bought this yarn for socks that never materialized. Neither skein has been touched.
_________
I also have 3 full skeins of 3 ply lightweight cotton/wool blend (75% cotton/25% wool).
The color is natural white (cream color). The company is also Cestari.
I must have purchased this for a baby sweater as I have one more skein (making this 4 in total) that has what looks like the back of a baby/toddler sweater-back in progress with it.
If desired, I'll throw in this project (for which I have no pattern). This could make a baby sweater or maybe a scarf or ???
I'll include the nice # 3 bamboo knitting needles that are attached to the project.
______
Finally, I have two skeins of fingering weight wool. One is deep brown and the other is an oatmeal color. I intended these for a pair of two-color Swedish mittens. They are nice together, I think. Both skeins appear new but neither has a label. I do know that they are pure wool though.
All of my yarn stays bagged and kept in a dry, temperate location so none of it is dusty or dirty. My projects are also kept in bags along the way so also remain clean.
Please email me if you are interested in any of this yarn.
Happy knitting!
Karen

Karen, I am interested in any yarn that no one else wants. I would gladly barter something with you and pay shipping.

I am so humbled by the generosity here.
I was only too happy to see my yarn go to good homes and in addition I received such bounty--
gorgeous handmade cards, luscious homemade grape jelly (YUM!) and so much more.
None of this was expected. Thank you so much!
Farmgirl hugs all around!
