Mrs. T visited the Nationale Textiel Manifestatie last saterday september 26. in the monumental city of Doesburg. Every two year the old church is the center of everything 'textile art', mostly felting, weaving and knitting. Though mrs. T. loves to felt too, she especially hoped to buy some nice knitting yarn.
She was a bit disappointed by the offer. But she bought a few nice yarns anyway.

Like this one:
This is colorfull yarn made from old sari's fron India or Nepal. It's 100 % silk.
It is sold by Diversan . They also sell yarns made fron bambu and banana leaf.
Mrs. T. has since long wanted to give this Sari yarn try. But the scarf made of Sari shown at the fair was not really to her linking. It may be nicer to combine this silk yarn with something else.
At the same 'shop' she also bought this beautiful (sock)yarn:
It's Araucania Ranco from Chili. This yarn (75% wool, 25% polyamid) was handdyed.
Great yarn to turn into a nice pair of warm socks (for Mrs. T. herself, if nobody else takes it)
Last yarn shop at the fair were these markless and nameless yarns. Bought together with a knitting fork (more about that later). No idea what to make of this yet!
