Tweedle Dumb


I like Moda Dea fashion yarns in general. Bamboo Wool, Fashionista, Sassy Stripes. They are generally fun yarns.

Except Tweedle Dee. Tweedle Dee is a beautiful and wonderfully soft yarn, but it is a pain to work with. I think it is overwound or something, because it starts to coil after a few stitches unless I let the stuff unwind regularly. Unwinding takes longer than crocheting does. I am taking easily 3 times longer to make a shawl for my mother than I should be.

But it is so pretty! I am using the Blue Heather, and the colors fade into each other so well. The picture from the Moda Dea website doesn't do it justice.

I just won't buy it again. I am ready for a more agreeable yarn.
