Fiberlicious Friday
I haven’t posted any Fiberlicious Friday pictures so far, because I couldn’t bring myself to photograph yarns with cutlery and food. But as I sliced a delicious, juicy pluot this morning, I couldn’t help but remember the Highland Silk yarn that came from Elann a couple of days ago for my Ogee Tunic:
Funny, they called the yarn shade "Raspberry," but the delicate pinks and the silk sheen remind me of the veins and lustre of the flesh of the pluot.
Incidentally, I thought this pluot was a fancy French fruit with a fancy French name. Turns out it’s a cross between a plum and an apricot, say what! I have been devouring it in the past month.
I cannot wait to cast on for the Ogee Tunic again! (by the way, do click on the Fiberlicious link above, there are some gorgeous photos)
Enjoy your weekend!
Oh wow, that is some seriously gorgeous yarn! The pluot comparison is perfect! Speaking of fruits, the color of the inside of a dark red plum is also gorgeous…unfortunately our grocery store seems to get more of the blah yellow ones.
That’s going to be pretty. You know, I’ve seen pluots, and knew what they are, but I don’t think I’ve ever eaten one. Huh. I’ve been eating lots of peaches, because turns out they grow well in Ontario. They’ve been making me very happy, most of the time. Except for the few mushy ones that show up. Grrrr.
Lovely photos! I just bought pluots at the farmers market this morning — I’d never had one before, but the name makes much more sense now.
mmmm- I love pluots!!!
That looks delicious. Mmm.
