If you receive Spincycle’s emails you saw this sneak peek of Andrea Mowry’s sweater that is coming out next week. The sweater is knit in worsted weight. You can see another sneak peek on Andrea’s Instagram.

I don’t know the yardages or sizes yet - we will know that Tuesday morning when the pattern comes out. I have put together some suggestions so you can start thinking about it.

The first few pictures are Le Lambswool and Dream State

Here is another combination. This is Lynn’s Calypso Worsted. She used Le Lambswool in Light Grey with On the Low. You could use Medium Grey, Dark Grey or Very Dark Grey for the ribbing colour.

Malabrigo Rios. Rios won’t stripe like Dream State but you will see colour changes and I think that would look great in the sweater.

Arco Iris

Hollyhock

There will be more combinations coming. There are many more Rios options. Then there is Cascade 220 and Cascade 220 Heathers. I think that they would work great with Noro Kureyon or Ito.

I placed an order with Biches & Buches today. We will be restocking Le Lambswool and adding three brand new colours. I can only guess that these will arrive in a week to two weeks.

We will have two brand new colours of Dream State early next week. Levitate and Dark Side.

It’s been a long day. I was up at 5:30 with Beth. Her and dad took the dogs to the office and then headed to Peterborough. After they left I got in an hour nap before doing my chores and heading to the store. It’s going to be an early evening. If I can sleep - I think I’m going to be dreaming of colour combinations.
