Americo Original
By Megan Goodacre
Charles is a good knitter's husband; whenever he goes on a trip, he checks out local yarn stores and chats about Tricksy Knitter.
He was in Toronto last week, and brought back some beautiful 80% baby suri 20% wool from Americo Original. I hadn't heard of this company before; what a cool story, it's a Toronto-based yarn company, with a beautiful boutique on Queen Street West.
I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. The photos don't do it justice; it's very soft, and the colours are rich but subdued. I'll blog more later! Thanks to co-owner Nicole Sibonney for throwing in a couple of extra skeins!
