Yarns and fibres

Stage 1 of the making and designing process is always a little mix of pleasure and pain, while some yarns fit perfectly for the qualities that you want to test, some times my mind always wants to puck the softest yarn like a silk or mohair. I did however eventually (after many minutes of debating) choose a variety of different wools relevant to my study. I did however take out one cone of silk  boule; i probably won't use it but it's got a lovely texture and also terribly soft. After 2 years I am quite familiar with the yarns available to me at the studio so although in my head I already knew what I wanted I took a little extra time just for feeling all the fibres.
