i’m going to sydney next month for work, and was thinking about the potential for yarn shop exploration, when i suddenly thought that maybe someone in sydney would stock soy silk!. so i checked their website, and had a look at some websites for australian stockists of southwest trading company yarns (none of which are in sydney), and clicked over to their new zealand listing as an afterthought, only to discover a new shop on their list!
yarn traders doesn’t stock soy silk and bamboo yet, but apparently will do soon. what they do have is BANANA SILK. it’s made from banana fibres and is hand spun and dyed in nepal, and it looks amazing. i just ordered a couple of skeins to see what it’s like. wow.
(if anyone does have any good sydney yarn shop suggestions, please comment!)
No! I don’t want you to go away! Who will give me table scraps and those wonderful slowly-waking-up-in-the-morning cuddles?!??!
