thoroughly intoxicating!




I must confess that this is NOT the geeky swatch... but the beginning of the sweater (which I started tonight). Colour choice due in large part to (and inspired by) the lovely "extra" in a recent swap package from our very own Stitchay Woman! The two yarns pictures are SWTC, one soysilk, one bamboo.

Has anyone else started this top? It's a great knit so far, and makes me feel so clever! ;-)

That looks really nice so far. How is it working out with two different kinds of yarn?

This is looking great! Love the colors :)

Thanks to both of you for your comments.

Amethyst: it's going quite well - the yarns are similar. Am also using sea silk (two strands) which is the white colour you see in the pic and will be using a 4th yarn of a different colour which I won't post until I'm done ;) (ah, the mystery of it all).

Re. the colours: Stitch-ay Woman is to be congratulated for the main colour choice as she sent both yarns to me. A reminder to me to be more open-minded about muted colours!
