Okay, folks. I'm selling what's left of my fabulous buy of Jo Sharp Silkroad yarn. It's 85% wool, 10% silk, 5% cashmere. It's been my absolute favorite yarn to work with so far! I can't really justify keeping this since I already made an awesome sweater. I have 19 balls ready to go (at what I paid for them plus shipping). All of this can be yours for $80 (including shipping). If I don't have any takers, I'll just put it up on eBay later this month. Speaking of which, you can pay me with paypal or send me a check. Just email me at sra_nelson at yahoo dot com if you're interested.
Here are the specs and some close-ups. Length: 85 m (93 yds), 50g ball. Tension: 18 sts & 24 rows measured over 4 inches in st st using US8 needles. Gentle hand wash/Dry flat in shade. Do not tumble dry/Do not dry clean. www.josharp.com.au Made in Italy.
