Zena

Zenafinal1

Zena by SKIF International.

Knitted with Habu Textiles A-33 2/48 Merino Wool, one strand each of black and a light olive green, plus one strand of Habu handpainted silk/mohair in green.

These photos don't do the Habu yarn justice.   There's a depth to the color of the handpainted silk/mohair that I can't seem to capture.  Nor, is the lovely halo evident.  And, no photo could capture the fuzzy silky coziness.

Boy, does that look warm and luscious! Wear it in good health!

I'm picturing the mentioned yarns in my mind... hmmmm... ;)
It looks gorgeous Steph. Ive decided to keep the K side as the RS too, but I may change the sleeves around to the WS.
Soooo, your verdict?
