Can I interest anyone in some blue sari silk

blue sari silk, originally uploaded by thereyougothen.

I bought this on the skip north trip. i've realised that i'm not going to use it and i'm trying to downsize my stash a little.... would anyone like it? I'd like somewhere around £15 for it. I paid just over £18.

I had been going to use it to make a granny sq handbag - but it's too chunky for that - the squares were going to be far too big, not at all the dainty idea i had in my head. so, if chunky sari silk is your thing, this may well be your yarn.

ETA: it's 450grams in total.

I promised Hugh a picture of my swift - here it is. not beautiful, but perfectly functional. I got it for under £10 because the seller listed it as a "skein holder" as opposed to a swift.

aha - there's another one up there today and for the next 5 days: http://tinyurl.com/2m2n67

uh oh, more yarn...

i've also got a whole bunch of either Wendy or Stylecraft Velvet DK< also bouhgt on a skipnorth excursion. it had said baby blankets to me because it's so soft. but, i haven't quite got there. it's bright royal blue, the yarn has quite a lot of stretch. hats? i'm not gong to use it. this is free to a good home. 500gm.
