Alpine Bloom Again

We have a new store sample. Deidre knit Alpine Bloom (pattern purchased on Ravelry). We knit the second size for the sample.

Yarn

  • Kathmandu Fingering - 2 balls of colour 27
  • Spincycle Dyed in the Wool - 2 skeins of Miss Me
The Kathmandu Fingering looks great knit up and it feels good. Lynn wore the sweater all day Saturday. I had to stop her when she was leaving because she still had it on.

I ordered in a few colours of Kathmandu Fingering to try the yarn and we all love it. There are many colours coming - hopefully this week. I made up kits using the swatches from Kathmandu and Spincycle.



You can use Kathmandu Fingering to knit Autumn Alpine if you want a long sleeve version of the sweater.
Thanks M for taking a picture in the sweater.

This is my set up right now. 
Coming tomorrow - kits for Stephen West’s upcoming MKAL. I took pictures yesterday but haven’t had time to get them online. I’ll be making up more combinations as well.
