So, off I go again. I've told myself that I will have this finished by next winter. If it goes as well as I think it should I will commit making one for a friend.
This is what I'll be making:
I promise myself that next winter this will be mine to wear.
I ordered my yarn- lark, by quince & co in the color Iceland. It's just a soft heather grey. I wanted something neutral that would match my different winter coats. Quince & Co is a yarn company based in Maine. They make every yarn from US goods- so their products are made in the USA - completely. They have an amazing selection of yarn and colors. The nerd in me loves that the colors are 'nature' based names and all the different yarn weights are named after birds. :D
Check them out : quinceandco.com
I got the pattern from another awesome favorote- purlbee.com by purl soho. I didn't go with their yarn bc I honestly did not want to spend $80+ on yarn that I wasn't sure about. I've never touched it or seen it before. When I went to Maine last summer- I got to see the quince&co yarns up close and personal. I fell in love but committed my money to the LL Bean home store. Anyone from the northeast knows how wicked important it is to buy your winter goods from LL Bean. ;)
Anyway- I will post my progress.
