2 March 2013

Oops! I forgot to mention one more model being knit for the shop out of a new yarn. It is Softknit Cotton made by Rowan.

The model is being knit in color Lupin in an aran vest called "Killarney" from Rowan's new magazine Softknit Collection. The magazine is a wonderful collection of sweaters for both men and women. This magazine is a keeper!

This cotton yarn is wonderfully soft and holds its shape - hard to believe. The secret is just a small amount of polyamide (think nylon) mixed with the cotton. It makes the yarn soft and resilient.

The yarn should be here in time for your spring knitting.
