Back in 2009 I had the pleasure of working with Maylin from Tri’Coterie on my Mystic Air shawl. Maylin created some gorgeous lace yarn for me that was used in the design.
Since then, Maylin has introduced a number of new yarn bases and colours, and today I received the following (gorgeous!) samples in the mail:
From left to right we have 2 skeins of 100% SW merino lace in dark greens, 1 skein of 100% SW merino lace in dark teal, 1 skein of Kid Lace in blues and black, 1 skein of merino tencel lace in red, and 1 skein of silk sock in red. All of the laceweight yarn is about 800 m per 100 g, which happens to be one of my favourite weights for lace yarn. It’s a little thicker than some lace yarns, and I think it gives the lace shawl a really nice body. I already have a plan for the silk sock, but I have a feeling the laceweights won’t be far behind.
