Sneak Peak at a new yarn...

At first sampling i wasn't in love with any of the 3 colours i had, a little dark for me really. But I kept going and eventually found a motif and a mix that i adore, There is going to be lots more to come with this beautiful soft yarn....this is just a teaser for you



of course I had to give it the Prisma love...and turn it into an art piece didn't I?

And experiment with all the filters...please don't ask for these colours they do not exist all in this last collage are PRISMA FILTERS and me having fun
