I'm not sure it's really possible to remain unspoiled about a Sundara Seasons shipment but anyway, here's some blank space if you are...
So yes, the latest Seasons shipment arrived at our house yesterday... and I did in fact manage to remain unspoiled up until then, although I did see the names of some of the yarns on the ISO/Destash list (yes, the trading frenzy has begun already). For those of you still unfamiliar with the whole Sundara thing, well, let's just say it's kinda hard to explain!
At first I thought my shipment was all wrong as many of the colors looked the same, until I examined the labels and saw that they were in fact different colors, all very dark though. Some people keep their yarn in the bags for better trading but, besides the fact that I don't do that, in this case unwrapping them was a necessity because it was only then that you could see the different colors.
The final verdict = love, of course. I am surprised that the colors are so dark and manly and similar this time around but they are beautiful and as usual look great together as well.
This photo shows the colors pretty true, at least on my monitor:
From left to right: bluebells (spring), aurora borealis (summer), brambleberry (autumn) and night blossom (winter).
I think the first three especially look gorgeous together. Night blossom has more of a reddish tint, although some people have described both their brambleberry and night blossom to be purple - not my skeins!
And of course, here are the obligatory more abstract shots... still loving my camera and the zoom lens. Colors here vary from relatively true to completely off (especially bluebells).
