I finished Drachenfels this week. Oh I do love it! I used two different Madelinetosh yarns, Tosh Sock and Dandelion, which has some linen in it. I really am happy with it.

I started a pair of socks for my boyfriend, Business Casual in Cascade Heritage Sock. Wow is that stuff soft! I think he will really like them. This will be the third pair I have knit for him.
I also bought yarn for Churchmouse Yarn and Tea's "Simple Tee" pattern. Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool in ice blue. I had to drive near the local yarn shop the other day so I was able to select some yarn. When I got home I discovered I didn't have the right needles (how is that possible??) so I am waiting for those before I knit a swatch. The LYS is really good about shipping. It is over an hour drive, so I don't go over there much, but I do try to order from them instead of other online retailers if I can.
Beautiful shawl. The colors look so nice together. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful shawl! Love this color combination!
ReplyDeleteYour shawl is beautiful. I don't knit shawls because I wouldn't wear them and no one I know does. But I love to look at them. Our LYS closed last year: I really miss that place.
ReplyDeleteLovely shawl!
