Big confession

My first "One Skein" parcel arrived on Tuesday.

Yesterday I was in a hurry to go to Bradford to see a friend's work on display at Bradford College, and took the skein with me.
On the train I couldn't resist winding it into a ball, so that I could really feel it.

The upshot is that I haven't photographed it yet.
So firstly here is a verbal description.

It came from House of Hemp and is suitably fine for my liking.
What's more it is purple and other rich colours.

I'll just have to hold you in "suspenders" for a few days until I have the time to take its photograph.
