I had a class to teach, and while that was going on, a customer found a different color of the Maxima and bought half of it. On Saturday, Celtic Queen came in and bought three skeins of that same color, leaving just two in the store. I couldn’t leave them behind, sad and lonely.
Meet my Maxima
This base yarn is just lovely. It’s a single, and as soon as I touched it, I immediately though “Look out, Malabrigo. There’s a new kid on the block with better colors.”
This particular colorway is called Beehive. It’s 219 yards/skein, worsted weight and listed as 100% extrafine merino wool. As you saw on Wednesday, it jumped onto my needles right away. My möbius is coming along nicely, thanks!
Now I just need to resist the “original” George. Wish me luck!

I wanted to pet your yarn the other night, but I thought I should keep my germs off of it. It looks amazing!
Oooh that is gorgeous!! Hard to resist I'm sure ;)
GORGEOUS color! I'm still leery of using Manos, though. The one project I did with it, the yarn SHREDDED my hands. I don't know if it was something in the way the yarn was dyed or processed or what, but I usually skip it. That's tempting, though.
That is gorgeous yarn. It looks soft in the photos. I can see how it'll feel. I'll have to look and see if my lys has any in stock.
