Lynn’s new sweater

Meet North Row (pattern purchased on Ravelry).

She knit the sweater in Kathmandu DK. I brought in one colour for her to try and she loved it. We’ve added 2 more colours and more will be coming as fall approaches.

Lynn knit the second size and used 5 skeins.

I wanted to write yesterday but it was a busy day. Laundry. Packing. Winding yarn…..

I think we’re ready to go. We fly out of Hamilton at 1:20 and arrive in St. John’s just after 6pm. Then pick up the car and get to the hotel. I’m not sure there will be time to blog tonight.
