My addiction to snagging a little something from indie dyer updates goes on. The newest score, some Troika Worsted from Mama Blue!
Yarn: Troika Worsted, Mama Blue Knitting Goods
Color: Kelp
Dye Lot: —
Amount:1 skein at 185 yds
Purchased at: Mama Blue esty shop
stashed on ravelry here
This yarn looked amazing on the site, but is a million times more beautiful in person. It’s so sproingy feeling and the color is so rich. The yarn feels amazing. All the Troika yarns (it comes in three weights) are Merino/Cashmere/Nylon blends and it feels like pure heaven. This little skein is going to make one very luxurious accessory.

I think “sproingy” is a great word! I want to see this little gem in person and feel the “sproinginess!”

Lovely looking yarn – I managed to get myself some troika worsted not so long ago and is truly the sproingiest loveliest stuff in the world. Troika sock’s fab too! I’ll look forward to seeing what you make with yours – I still haven’t figured out a fate worthy of mine yet!
PS I’ve just found your blog and am so enjoying reading it… an inspiration for me to get back on the blogging bandwagon myself :)
