NOTE - the larger of the cones does have some staining on the top and bottom; it looks superficial. see picture. unlikley to show in the end product if you’r going for a more rustic look. Discounted some for the stains.

Zephyr - turquoise - 1 lb 1 oz - 10$ pending
18/2 silk wool blend 50/50
NOTE 1: this cone has been around the block and I’m not the first owner. It looks ok on the cone edges, but I can’t guarantee that there won’t be occasional breaks where the edges may have been worn. Hence the discount.
Note 2: in real life looks more turquoise green than blue as in the picture.
Lot of 3 lbs of Alpaca yarn - 60$ - pending
App 1990 yds per lb (based on length/weight of smaller dark skein)
This was alpaca fiber purchased at a local show which I sent out to be processed at a local mill (Fantasy Fibers, now closed).
Each of the colors is from a single (but different) animal.
There is 1 lb 4 oz of the beige in one skein. The yarn thickness of the beige is a little more uniform than the brown (see pictures) and there are a few slubs.
2 lbs 3 oz of the fudgy brown in 2 skeins - 10 oz in the small one and 1 lb 11 oz for the larger. the yarn thickness is a little more variable than for the beige, but fine with regards to the strength of the yarn. There are more slubs in the brown (see pictures).
Not really suitable for knitting, but will be perfect for weaving, if warped and woven densely (according to J. McKenzie who saw and provided some advice on this yarn).
I will include a small sample of 4 plies of this yarn cabled - more work, but a very beautiful product to weave with.
1 lb 10 oz very fine 2 ply silk yarn - 20$ - pending
I hate it when the labels get lost! it is finer than 60/2.
Maybe 120/2? 240/2? you can buy the McMorran balance and figure it out.
