bottom: cowl started in old STR (feels like mediumweight) in Turquoise
Wait, bear with me while I catch my breath. Hahahahahahahah!!!! Well, they have a pretty wide selection of fiber, but jiminy frigging cricket, how awesome would it be if they invested in better lighting? It’s just me, I’m sure, with my crappy eyesight and all, but seriously, lighting is so important. Anyhoo, they have a gorgeous selection of Malabrigo Silky Merino, which I have wanted to try since I first heard about it. It’s silky, it’s merino, it’s squishy and fabulous. Excellent! And they have a solid selection of colors to choose from. The yarn in the top photo is the closest they had to turquoise. In fact, it looked pretty turquoise to me then, and it looks pretty turquoise now, right? The label says the colorway is called Ankara Green. Hmmmm…. But it looks like turquoise, right? Would you use it if you wanted turquoise? GAH! Okay, I’m calm, all is good, but I have cast on with the STR just in case….

It definitely looks turquoise to me. 🙂
totally turquoise. in fact, it’s fabulously turquoise. you can go with it.
yeah, i’m pretty sure that’s turquoise – either way, it’s a fantastic color. (and i’m pretty sure i know EXACTLY which store you’re talking about, too.)
Dude, that is most definitely, totally turquoise. It’s a super stunning shade of it too.
looks pretty turquoise to me!
most definitely turquoise. it will be beautimous!
Ankara green?? Whatever. Looks turquoise to me, and it’s beautiful!If you’re still thinking about the STR, you could maybe double-strand it, that would knit up a little quicker.
I actually think the top skein of “green” is more turquoise than the bottom skein of STR “Turquoise”!!Oooh, I like the double-stranded STR idea…it would blend the colours more. Right now, the dark blue is kind of popping out a bit much, imo. But what a lovely gift idea, either way!
