I wandered in to the yarn store on my lunch hour. It just felt like that kind of day. I stopped as I always do, by their stock of Rowan Pure Wool Worsted. I have always loved Rowan's Pure Wool line.
It just is such a sound yarn, such a round yarn. I have been looking for the right project to use it for.
I wandered towards the back of the store and came across a new to me Noro.
Sitting here this morning I have no idea what it is! I had to take the ball in to the office and I left it behind at home time. But the colours. Oh my. There is a richer than sin royal blue, and turquoise and even some deep purple. I will put up a picture if I can.
OK, late in the day but I have found out what it is! Karuta. Absolutely splendid colours.

The colours, the vibrant richness of it were the spark. Before you can say why a woollen sweater, I had the yarn assembled for a Shalom, yet another Shalom. I really like knitting that sweater and I love the creative possibilities it gives you for using fantastic the colours of Noro.
And I could use a blue sweater. No better reason than that.
I also forgot to mention to the Noroa aficionado among us, Noro has a new solid colour line that is Silk Garden but solid colours. I can't wait!
