I finished this up this weekend, taking a break from lace knitting and enjoying the soothing rhythms of simple knitting. I will confess that this colorway does not really remind me of Casablanca, but I do like the colors. Honestly, I haven't really found any of the Color Cruise colorways to be that evocative of the places that they are supposed to represent, unlike the Flower of the Month colorways. And wait till you see the Azores Islands Pullover. It has a very unusual combination of colors that I wasn't sure about at first, but which is growing on my as I knit.
Yarn - Fiesta Yarns Boomerang in Casablanca, 3 skeins
Pattern - Top Down Raglan from SweaterWizard
Needles - US 5, 6
I have also been busy organizing my studio. I have been taking photos of the pattern envelopes of my sewing patterns with my iPad so I can leaf through the pictures when I want to find something to sew. I have made it through my collection of Vogue and McCalls patterns, and am on the Simplicity patterns.
