We each decided to buy the yarn for the little shawl, but they didn’t have the color we wanted in the kit. Yasuko was first buying it to knit summer socks, but then we saw the pattern by Bernd Kestler in a kit. We also discovered a really interesting knitting pattern for a sort of neckpiece-shawl that used three balls of an Italian variegated yarn called Mela Naif, which is 45% cotton, 42% wool and a little polyamide. I will add the other one to my stash, since I often weave with Leafy. I bought four of those and my friend can take her pick. They had a second blue Leafy, this one with some tan in it. We then moved on to the Okadaya yarn store in Shinjuku, which in the past has not been as good as Yuzawaya. That was the only thing I found of interest at Yuzawaya in Kichijoji. There was a new blue and green one, so I bought four skeins of that. However, it turns out that Leafy changes color numbers every year, and this number was a couple of years old and sold out. I had an order to fill for a friend in Honolulu, who wanted four skeins of Leafy washi paper yarn in a variegated blue for which she had given me a color number. The top one is blues and greens, while the bot Back tomorrow.Two different blue Leafy washi paper yarns from two different yarn stores. We will keep the best ones for cooking and eating and let the birds have the bruised ones. We are going to gather up the zillions of apples that have fallen in the wind.

Now I must go and have a tidy up as I am expecting a delivery of discontinued Debbie Bliss and, as usual, space is at a premium. We are going for our lobster dinner tomorrow in Cambridge. But I could be wrong – I hated Luzia and it sold very well. I was not especially impressed with two new yarns as they are not really different and have quite a lot of synthetic fibre in them. Grace Hand Dyed, Mulberry Silk, Mulberry Hand Beaded Silk, Sari Ribbon and Simonetta are all discontinued. There are new shades in Mila, Jesse and Colline.
