Quick Gift Knitting
Herringbone Neck Warmer using Malabrigo worsted (in "Rose Vivacity") and Bainbridge Scarf in Rowan Wool Cotton (in "Moonstone")
Need something fast? These patterns are great.
I swiped a ball or so of Wool Cotton from the two sweater's worth I got on sale at Richesse when they were getting rid of their Rowan yarn awhile back (sadly, they seem to be no longer around). I likes Wool Cotton. I likes it a lot. Gotta think about what to do with my haul.
Oh, and Neptune it is. Definitely, Neptune.
I'm looking forward to seeing Neptune knit up! I lnike those quick patterns. I'll have to try the Herringbone Neck Warmer. I've knit the Bainbridge scarf and like it very much.

Yep, Neptune it is for me too! Phew! I'm using Socks That Rock Mediumweight - just to, y'know, send mysef right over the edge this time! :)

At the rate I'm getting to knitting, I'm sure you'll have a Neptune FO long before me! I'll be excited to see your's.
Wool cotton is great, isn't it? I've only used it for baby sweaters so far, haven't found the right me pattern for it. But the colors are gorgeous and I love the hand.
