Last month I went to Palmetto Tat Days in Toccoa, GA, again. This year I was able to get some HDT from Karey Solomon. I had heard of her wonderful thread, but somehow missed it last year. (How, I don't know, unless she had a much smaller supply then). I'm still winding the new threads onto bobbins but wanted to share some of them first. A couple, like Kilt, aren't as impressive on the bobbin as they were in the skein, unfortunately. I bought 14 different colors; here are some of them. The first one is bamboo, not cotton, and is really soft. Karey says it's more absorbent, too, and makes great coasters. I told her I live in the land of no humidity, so I rarely use coasters. :-)
I'm not sure if I'm more enchanted by the colors or by the names. In addition to the ones below, I also have Early Spring, Jellyfish, Spring Morning Lakeside, Toodles,
and
Verdigris.
Isn't it pretty? I think/hope the colors show up fairly accurately.
