Webs Parade, next float ~

The next yarn in our wonderful Webs Parade is a lovely Jo Sharp Silk Road in a shade of red, almost a brick red. The yarn feels as soft as the "lake" color that I used for the chocolate ribs hat this month, so I wasn't disappointed in ordering more of this lovely Silk Road. The yarn is 85% wool, 10% silk and 5% cashmere. Just 60 yards per skein, and needle size is 10.5, so it is a bit bulkier that my typical choice...but the softness is so delightful.... I also bought the shade "clinker" (what a great name!!) and it is a deep bluish black ~ and still that same softness... ahhhh, I love this yarn!
P.S. H made both of the ceramic pieces in 7th grade!
