    About

    I wanted a challenge with new stitches and pattern textures. I loved the feminine style and colours of the beautiful silk blend yarn. It was really enjoyable to knit and not too difficult once I got my head around the pattern instructions and the pattern layout as I knitted it up. It was easier to ignore markers and work with the pattern from sight. Challenging but satisfying. This yarn comes in a skein. Pulling the yarn free from the skein was sometimes difficult because it was so fine, careful technique was need to to ensure it did not catch on itself and end up in a large knot.
