I like the colourway on those. It reminds me of the guillian chocolate seashells.

Yes it is.  I didn't think much of it on the ball but LOVED it knitted up. I've just treated myself to some (& Tiger) from Modern Knitting  Wink

Thank you  Embarassed

I wasn't sure if MIL wore them but DD saw her wearing them recently so I'm happy with that.
