Visions of Sweaters Dance in my Head

Remember that day, about a month ago, that I journeyed into the magical world of Manhattan yarn stores? Well it wasn't just Habu that I visited. Oh, no. I also made it into School Products, which I hear is the oldest yarn store in Manhattan. And you won't believe what I found there:

Aran weight Harris Tweed mill end, from Botto Poala, one of the finest Italian mills. More than enough for a sweater.


And soft, gorgeous, luxurious Baby Camel. In three natural colors.

Cream

Oatmeal

Camel


Another sweater's worth. Which sweater and how I'll incorporate the three colors, still to be determined. But tell me this isn't love at first sight!

Isn't School Products Karabella Yarns?
The owner of the company has a store in NJ and wrote Runway Knits.
Such beatiful yarn!
