Double Knitting

I am finally done with this hat. It was made with KnitPicks "Elegance" yarn. 70 % Alpaca and 30% Silk.This is this softest, yummiest yarn. I definitely plan to use it again.This a Nancy Lindberg pattern called "Double Knit Hat" She also has a pattern for the headband as well. I used a size 8 circular. I started this hat last winter then sort of put it away and forgot about it. I decided this year I would finish it and wear it. I love it. It is reversible you know!!

Fleece Artist

The highlight of this cruise for me was going to Fleece Artist and watching them dye yarn out in the barn.I bought so much of their yarn. I am so in love. This yarn is just so beautiful and soft. I dont even want to knit with it yet, I just want to look at it. Feel it!! Im sure it will eventually tell me what it wants to be. Hopefully I will listen.
