This is so beautiful. I can just imagine how elegant it is when actually wearing it and feeling the silky texture of the yarn. The yarn is gorgeous. I've never seen it before. I'm fascinated with the color name Maine Coastline. Does anyone know where it is sold? I'm going to have to look at silk yarns. It looks like thick crochet thread.
