Well, as promised, fiber content!
I am making progress on Mr. Penney’s sweater. Enough progress that you might actually get an indication of the design.
The yarn itself is ok to work with. I am used to merino yarns that consist of thinner plies (thus, more plies) than this yarn. I am just not sure of the durability at this point.
I also start a new project last night so that I could have something to work on while the trick or treaters come to our door tonight.
The yarn is merino/nylon sock yarn from Cabin Cove Mercantile. I can’t remember what the actual name that Dave gave the colorway, but to me it is Koi Pond. With the million interruptions that will occur tonight, this is going to be a very simple sock, stitch-wise.
Happy Halloween!
I love Mr. Penney’s sleeve, it is beautiful! He must be so impressed with your knitting skills. He picked great colors, too.
What toe up method are you using? Dave’s merino/nylon is one of my favorite yarns. Your sock is turning out so nicely, I look forward to seeing more.
Love the diamonds. That is definitely turning out to be one handsome sweater!
Koi Ponds is the perfect name for that colorway! I think a simple stitch pattern will work out just right.
Happy Halloween!
One of the advantages of living at the top of a steep and scary hill is that you get very few trick-or-treaters. Especially when you turn the lights off and go upstairs to watch TV. One of the disadvantages is that you overload on candy.
Diamonds pattern coming along GREAT!
I need to start my sweater soon..
Dave’s socks looks so awesome! It will be great socks!
Just found you from dave’s… lovely lovely yarn!
