Happy Sunday

Brian Smith has a new pattern. Meet Almondis (pattern available for purchase on Ravelry). This looks like a great wrap for a cold winter day.

The shawl is knit in worsted weight yarn.

Mitred squares added as you go, by picking up stitches from the previous square worked. Using four colors and seven stitch patterns.

Brian used four colours for his shawl. I think it would look beautiful in just one colour as well. 

I pulled two colour combinations yesterday in the store. These are both Tosh Vintage. 

Sugar Coat

Rose

Star Scatter/Solid

Night Bloom

Dr. Zhivago’s Sky

Saffron

Oak

Whiskey Barrel

We have more Vintage coming tomorrow. Rose and Oak are in the box along with

Glazed Pecan

Winter Wheat

Moonstone

Nocturne

You can use Cascade 220, Cascade 220 Heathers, Cascade 220 Superwash Merino, Woolstok or Malabrigo Rios. There are many options.

Cinnabar is growing. I’m enjoying Brioche knitting. It helps that the one ball changes colour so you want to knit ‘just one more row’ to see how the new colour looks. Now a few more rows before bed.
