Today is a good time to spend the day at home catching up on the blog and tidying up the knitting room. No snow yet, but I'm sure it is on the way. Weather like this makes me want to put on this new sweater, made with an alpaca/merino wool blend. It is my first official fairisle sweater, a keeper for sure. It is handknit and took plenty of time to complete, but well worth it. (not for sale)
I'm not Norwegian, but I am married to a man with the ancestry. Does that count? This shawl design is based on a norwegian lace pattern. The yarn is 50% alpaca, 30% merino, 20% silk. The feel is buttery soft. ($80)
This baby (3-6 months size) sweater and stocking cap is knit from a yarn called "Punch", alpaca and tencel blend. It is very lightweight and soft. ($45 for set)
November calls for a good scarf, this one is made from baby alpaca fiber with dark brown alpaca trim. The pattern is basket weave diagonal. ($20)
