Citron Shawlette

Here is my first finished object knitted out of the new 6-ply Color Changing Cotton yarn. I used one skein of AQUAFROG:
008 Citron Shawlette


The pattern is called Citron and was published in Knitty, Winter 2009, and can be found here.

Introducing: 6-ply

Color Changing Cotton yarn is now available as a 6-ply. This slightly thicker cousin of the 4-ply yarn is available in 100 gr skeins in my Etsy shop, Wolle's Yarn Creations.
This 6-ply yarn has appr. 320 yds/100 gr and is a sport/DK weight. With a US size 6 needle, projects with this yarn knit up quickly... So far these colorways are available (more coming soon):

ORANGE CHOCOLATE I and II
033 Orange Chocolate I + II

AQUAFROG I and II
006 Aquafrog + Aquafrog II

PURPLE SALMON I and II
009 Purple Salmon II + Purple Salmon

GOLDEN PURPLE I and II
012 Golden Purple I + II

Snow, snow, snow

This last weekend we had a big winter storm passing through Virginia. It started snowing Friday night and continued for 24 hours. The result were 2 feet of the fluffy white stuff. I love it when everything gets quiet and calm as if covered by one big blanket - only that blanket was for real this time...
