We just found one more ball of the "Blossom" colorway which had been hidden away.  So that is now added -- see the last picture on this web page and the description below.

We are delighted to be able to offer Freia Refined Lace Weight in a delightful 80% alpaca + 20% silk blend, 351 yards (321m) in each 50 gram cake.  The most wonderful part of this yarn is the looooooooooong color stretches that gradually blend one into the next.

Here is a quote from the Freia folks:  "Our... Alpaca Silk Lace is a four-ply 80% Alpaca and 20% Silk Lace yarn from Peru. with a gentle halo and a bit of sheen. This base is perfect for light lacy shawls with a delicate appearance, yet strong enough to make that favorite drape-y tee!"

About Flux colorways:

Each 50 gram ball...begins and ends with the same color, making for easy transitions from one ball to the next and leading to less waste. Flux Handpaints will have a base of about 8 colors per ball, though the dyes blend together and form additional colors.

1. Seaglass is a cool colorway featuring gray, teal, chartreuse, borwn and back to gray. 

2. Byzantine is as rich as its name implies.  I see a rich brown into chartreuse into blue into violet into rose into wisteria and back to the brown.

3. Blossom is a song to a garden, with brown and pink and fuchsia.

Just make sure that all three drop-down menus are set as you would like before you check out.

This is a marvelous piece -- a real pleasure to knit, to wear, to have....
