oooops! I just couldn't say no

Needed a couple of colours but ended up buying 16 I think at last count?
Stylecraft Life DK...
 
25% wool, 75% acrylic...a more woolly look to the yarn for those who aren't convinced about acrylics.
The colours I couldn't live without
cream
taupe
copper
melon
heather
clover
fuchsia
crocus
cardinal
cascade
aqua
daffodil
mint
zing
fern
crimson...a new red just out
just fell in love with it I did
can't believe the small amount of wool in it can make it so springy and woolly looking?
 
oooooh where's my hook?
Happy Hooking all x
