Sorry Wannietta

A while ago Wannietta knit the Ginormous Cabled Cowl for the store. Somehow I totally missed out on getting a picture of it.  Sorry.

The cowl is knit in one ball of Mille Colori Big with 8mm needles.

You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.

Another great idea for a Christmas gift.

Mille Colori Big comes in a 200gram ball with 190m.

50% new wool
50% acrylic

There is a new yarn in the store that I have neglected to talk about.

This is Drake from Estelle.

100m on a 100gram ball
12 stitches = 4" on 8mm needles
70% virgin wool
30% acrylic

The yarn is very inviting.  Multi-coloured that goes thick and thin.  Every time I walk by the basket I look down and think that I need to knit with it.

My day has been spent watching football and knitting.  The Leaf Scarf in Twinkle Soft Chunky is done.  Well almost-I need to sew in the ends tomorrow.

A bit of work was done today.  10 boxes are packed and ready to go to the post office in the morning.  Jane is away for another week (I hope she is enjoying Florida) so I will be in the store tomorrow.
