Xanthe

Ambah has a new pattern out. I think I've found my next project.

Xanthe Wrap is an invitation to play. Choose a trio of colours to express your style, the variations are endless; stripe two neutrals and add a lace colour pop, or keep it neutral for a classic look. Use your wildest speckle yarn striped with a solid and co-ordinating lace colour for something as fun to knit as it is to wear. The stretches of garter stitch make this a perfect project for travel or mindless knitting while beautiful lace keeps it interesting.  

Xanthe is knit on the bias which results in a rhomboid shape; it is easy to wear and will fast become a wardrobe staple. 

Pattern includes fully written instructions accompanied by a chart for the lace section.

Purchase the pattern on Ravelry...

The shawl is knit with 3 skeins of fingering weight yarn.

I think that we might need to do this a KAL.

A new colour of Debbie Bliss Rialto Luxury Sock arrived today. This is Soundwave.

This would be great as one of the colours in Around the Corner.

The new season of The Amazing Race started last night. We have it taped and will watch tonight. I'm not sure why they put it on at 10pm. It's a show that the whole family can watch.

Now I need to go pick out some skeins of yarn to take home and wind :)
