Vintage yarn
Here are some pics of the stash enhancement provided by a friend of my mom's. I'm guessing that most of the yarns are about as old as I am.
Lion is a brand that still exists today.
I've never knit 100% cashmere.
Or 100% mohair.
This yarn totally looks like cotton candy. The natural light was fading fast and I couldn't get a good color-likeness with the flash.
The label is so funny.
These were made in France. There are 10 skeins of the green.
Less of the cream and pink.
There's a good amount of this yarn, enough for a garment, I think.
One of my favorite colors.
There is a lot of yarn. I stopped photographing because the shots taken with the flash were not great. It's wonderful to have new-to-me yarn in amounts that will be enough for a variety of projects. I'm going to need a new tote, and, new space on my craft supplies shelves for these additions to the family :-)
