From Alisonj on eBay (with a few minor edits):
3 x 50g balls of MISSONI "PAG" knitting crochet weaving yarn
61% cotton/31% acrylic/8% polyamide
made in Italy
137 yds (125m)/ball for a total of 411 yds (375m)
colorway #202/soft taupe-sagebrush-terra cotta-teal multicolor mix, dye lot 3343

"Pag" is a lovely, soft mini-boucle yarn from the much-missed MISSONI line of handknitting yarns
was $9.95/ball (many years ago), for a total retail value of $29.85.
Yay, more Missoni for the list! I like this one, it looks like it feels scrunchy and crisp. The color and texture absolutely recall Missoni runway high-fashion creations.
The NYC Missoni boutique is on Madison & 78th. I sometimes get off the Mad Ave bus a stop before 79th St just so I can peer in the windows and luv the colors on the ridiculously expensive and oddly cut clothes. A few years ago they had shoes in the window that were just insanely beautiful shades of turquoise and green, the kind of shoes I would've bought just to admire cos my feet would never fit in them.
MMmmmissoni. Yaaaarrrrrrnn. Looooove.
Thank you, alisonj! There will be more goodies from her stash here soon I hope!
