Stash Sunday – Rock Creek Yarn Silk/Merino DK

This has been hanging out in my stash for a while.  As in, probably more than a year.  It’s one of the cases of it’s so pretty, I don’t know how I’m going to use it.  The design has to be worthy.  Plus, when I bought it I was intending it to be for myself, and since then, I’ve shrunk.  I probably have enough that I could make a WHOLE DRESS for myself, as long as I did it in lace.  I’ve even swatched it, so it’s not like I have any excuse.

In fact… that’s the other reason I haven’t worked it yet.  I want this to be a piece in my wardrobe for many years to come, and as such, I want it to fit for a long time.  So I’ve been waiting until I shrink just a little bit more.
