Artfibers Hana

I was going away for the weekend last week and I needed an emergency project for the plane, so I ran over to Artfibers and bought about 100g of Hana, which is a very nice 2-ply silk sportweight. I'm knitting some kind of smoke ring out of it, made up of garter stitch and dropped loop stitches.

I also picked up some of their spinning fiber, called Miso, which is a merino/soysilk blend. Generally speaking, their yarns aren't my thing - lots of ribbon and stuff, but it is pretty. I would like to see more spinning fiber along the lines of their design philosophy, though.
