Notes

I’m stashbusting.
These two yarns produce a very lightweight and warm fabric.
Knitted on 4,0 needles (bind off with 5,5). My yarn was much thinner than Veera’s so I made one stripe more to get the same size as hers.
Here are some facts:
length of spine: 74 cm
wingspan: 186 cm
weight: 136 g.
Lovely!

There will be another one I think….

Update 11/2011: The wool is still crisp and beautiful - it shows no signs of wear! I can recommend both yarns, and would like to knit with them again.
