Be still my heart

Yesterday I received some swatching samples from Shibui Knits (I'm working on a design for them right now in their Merino Alpaca) that are simply to die for (and the Merino Alpaca is really nice too- fabulous stitch definition without the droop factor). The first is called Silk Cloud and the name is very apt. It's similar to Kidsilk Haze, but softer. The other is their sock yarn, which like the Merino Alpaca (though it is just Merino) has very superior stitch definition. Nice, nice stuff.
