After finishing up the two bolster pillows I wasn’t sure what I wanted to work on. I have several WIPs that I could have picked up but just wasn’t feeling it. I did cake up yarn for another Natasja Hornsby pattern, but it was a bit more involved than I felt like dealing with so I grabbed this wonderful yarn that recently made it in to my stash.
This is Ashen, 100% Wensleydale, from
The Ross Farm. It is natural, no dye, and is really lovely to work with. The pattern is
Last Word by Thea Coleman, and the yarn is the one called for in the pattern. It came out this past March, and I bought the patten and ordered the yarn right away. I did go down a needle size, but am working the second size. I substituted a long tail cast on for the cable cast on, and did not do the increases on the sides after completing the ribbing. I just didn’t see the point. I’ve made a bit of progress, I’m almost through the first skein.
It is pretty easy knitting.
