I knit it in Valley Yarns Northhampton, which has some seriously impressive yardage- I managed to knit this beret and a clutch out of one skein. It seems pretty comparable to Cascade 220, but is cheaper for more yardage- what's not to like?
Pattern: ?
Yarn: Valley Yarns Northhampton
Colorway: White
Needles: Size 3 Circulars
Made for: Montly Color Swap (July: Black & White)
The Verdict: I love the way it looks. The swirl pattern on the nice simple white looks very chic and sophisticated. When I was knitting it, I was afraid that it would be a little small, but the yarn really bloomed out nicely when I washed and blocked it. I'm quite pleased with the result, and hopefully my Swap partner will be too!
I LOVE this!! I wish I knew how to knit... I'd make one of these in every color! Great job!
