FO's seemed a little frivolous yesterday.
However, today, I am heading out of town and I didn't want to leave an non-updated blog behind.
(Puck's 11th birthday party this weekend, five 11 year olds, three adults and the teenager at the cabin.)
Banff from Knitty. 10 Skeins of Knitpicks Wool of the Andes in Cranberry. This is going to be my favorite Winter sweater for weekend laying about. (So, seriously, at the current price $20 for this sweater). I like the yarn, we'll have to see how it wears. In the meantime, I will be ordering quite a bit more.
I started this last September, made a brave effort in January to finish, but finally just pulled out the sleeves and gutted it out this last month.
So now? We pull out the purple for the next Project Spectrum projects!

The sweater turned out very nicely! I love that color.
The Wool of the Andes wears pretty well, but it does tend to get a bit pilly. I've noticed it more with the tweedy colors, so that may be a function of the color blending. Not sure.
Have fun at the cabin. Five 11 year olds... scary.

Great sweater! My mom uses the Wool of the Andes all the time - it is a nice price. Did you use the regular or the bulky? I noticed the gauge for the sweater was 3.5/inch.
Good luck with the crew!
