Ok knitters, no spoilers on what I’m knitting here (if you know)… but didn’t this knit up pretty? I love hand-painted/variegated yarns in the skein, but they are sooo hard to make look good once they are knit. Flashing & pooling absolutely drives me crazy, and I have been know to rip and reknit the same yarn 5 or 6 times until I can find a pattern, gauge, and yarn combo that works without pooling. This particular project only took one try (hallelujah!) but lots and lots of Ravelry stalking helped my odds.
alright, you *need* to email me and tell me what pattern and what yarn cause it looks freaking beautiful! <3!
Gorgeous! I recognize the pattern, I think, but what is that yarn? It paired perfectly with the pattern – great choice!
What lovely colors!! I know what you knit and it looks fabulous:~D
That’s a great pattern/yarn combo. Pooling is the devil, I hate it so much I’ll occasionally imagine it in a semi-solid yarn.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this gorgeous yarn!
