Allow Me to Be the Voice of Temptation (Alternate Title: A Knitter’s Economic Stimulus Package)

Oh, that I were made of money! Check out these special prices on full bags:

Amerah by Southwest Trading Company, 100% silk, 97 yards per skein, $24.99 per bag at Discontinued Brand Name Yarn. My favorite, of course, is Cantalope, but there are lots of shades available in colors that are simultaneously perky and relaxing.

Gianna by Southwest Trading Company, 50% soy silk, 50% wool, 90 yards per skein, $1.99 per ball = $19.90 per bag (!), also at Discontinued Brand Name Yarn. This bulky weight yarn looks to have a lovely sheen and comes in warm, rich colors. My faves? Opulence and Venetian Blue. (Hah! You thought I was going to pick Treasure Chest, didn’t you?)

Korall Fancy by Laines du Nord, 100% wool, 63 yards per skein, $24.75 per bag at Little Knits. These are bulky-weight marls in lively color combinations. I would like two bags in every colorway, thank you.
