Koigu Skeinettes have arrived and we're so excited! These 10m/11yd mini-skeins represent every shade of the Koigu KPM semi-solid colour palette.
 
 
And ideas for using these wonderful little gems of colour are endless.
 
 
Melissa will be crocheting Babette Blanket, using a combination of mini-skeins and Ancient Arts BFL fingering.
 
 
Her colour palette is taken from the Klimt painting, Hygieia . . .
