I really enjoyed working with this lovely lima alpaca blend yarn from Lincraft, it's so soft! This is my post for this week's Blue Monday hosted by Smiling Sally.Because the Lincraft pattern specified this particular yarn I splurged out and got it, although now I know the pattern I'm sure I could substitute other wool from my stash. The pattern was very easy and is another one in the Crochet 08/09 booklet I bought a couple of months ago.
I'm very pleased with how these worked out, they're perfect for wearing while typing on the computer during the winter months. Have you ever tried typing while wearing normal fingered gloves? LoL, it's just not possible no matter how unfrozen your fingers are!

I had a quick look at all the participants this week, something I haven't been able to do before. It does take a long time so I didn't comment on most. A couple I did comment on, and this was my favourite to link, for my future reference.

ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday, Teena.
Lovely. I especially like the colour. Thank you for visiting my blog and deciding to follow me. It looks like we have illness and a slower pace of life in common. I'm also getting into more crafts which I didn't have time for when I was working such long hours.
