Horray! Another FO from vintage yarn!
Back around 1980 I purchased 4 skeins of Brunswick Alaska Yarn in a Marine color. It is acrylic which looks like Mohair...yet there is a subtle shimmer of a metallic thread in with the hand spun look. The old label has a $3 sticker...I wonder what it would be now?
I had said that I would only purchase yarn to finish projects...well, I found that the 130 yards per skein wasn't going to make this shawl. I purchased 2 skeins of white Unger Fluffy and one of an Italian ladder yarn...I just LOVE it! I will upload a pic as soon as I get the ends woven in...this was a great use of my exception!
