There were also two huge boxes from Classic Elite

Fortuna is here and the colours are amazing. The Fortuna pattern book (or individual leaflets) are available for purchase on Ravelry.

The Diagonal Summer Scarf was in a Web-Letter from Classic Elite last summer. This would also look great in three or four colours of Fortuna.

This simple, reversible scarf shows the incredible colors of Bella Lino. Instructions are written to easily customize the width and length. Work your scarf in one color or many – since all Bella Lino shades have a flax-colored base, contrasting colors will blend beautifully (the scarf shown uses four different colors)

Cathy used 4 different colours for her scarf. There are so many great colours of Fortuna that it might be hard narrowing it down to 3 or 4. If I knit really fast on my ZickZack scarf then maybe I can cast on with Fortuna very soon. I really need 4 arms and then I could knit a lot faster.
