Urth Yarns

Mr. Canpar came in with an unexpected box today. The Urth Yarns are here.
Urth Yarns is a family owned yarn brand specialising in hand dyed natural yarns. We value the time and emotional investment that go into hand knitting; therefore appreciate your demand for a stimulative feel and yummy colours. Developing and employing innovative dyeing techniques, we aim for a love at first sight or touch, every time.

I need to cast on with the chunky tonight. The colours are way too beautiful.
I brought two different colours of the chunky home but I don't know if I'm going to knit with them. Beth claimed them as hers. After I roll the skeins and cast on. :) We're starting with the colour on the left. Now I need to go and get everything ready for her.
