Thanks to Melanie "crawling around the website" and finding some cashmere yarn that I had made awhile back and asking for that colorway to be translated to merino. Here it is.
Petroglyph.
Comments
OK, Liza.....this is Exactly my colorway and my adoptive homeland (Petroglyph Country)....so...please email me with info about how I can get some of this lucsious-looking fiber into my life, please.
My Shade Garden top-down circular shawl is so long that if I don't stop now, I'm going to have the world's weirdest-shaped afghan, but I'm having a hard time stopping. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Thank you, Lisa, your yarn is such beautiful artwork!
Oh, you guys are killllllling me. Of course, this merino thing was a dye run done on some natural light brown merino that I had lying around...now, you all want it. Sheesh! Now I have to make it "on purpose"... Mel, look what you have done! Thanks for shaking my head until the little pea dropped into the proper hole.
Lisa, I just got an email from my mom. My sister in Houston can't evacuate; the roads are impassable and the gas stations are emptying of fuel. She's on a hill, at least, and at the moment it's hot and dry there. And I am coping by wishing her and her neighbors well, while knitting like mad on your Pacific colorway. Bright greens and blues, with bits of purple here and there: with the sun at my back, glowing those colors in my hands, it feels like the eye of the storm is coming to be in my stitches. Calm and quiet at the purple centers here and there.
Yeah, it is. It just means that I have to keep a certain amount of nice light brown soft stuff on hand to play with. I scored some from My Dealer this afternoon and just have to weather the shakes until I get it into my hands again.

And somehow it helps. A lot.

So, does this mean that this color will be joining the regular line up? I actually caught my breath, it's so beautiful, and so me! :-)
