It turned out really well. It's what we call 4-ply weight here in the UK. So if you're looking for a pattern then that's what will work with this yarn. Drops have a website called Garnstudio with lots and lots of patterns for all their various yarns. You might find something there that you'd like to make.Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13234219836891799676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-17747541295720668362015-01-12T18:14:31.310-08:002015-01-12T18:14:31.310-08:00Flying piggies!

At least until they arrive at the girls' house and the girls can hug them :-) We have a few open pink raspberry colored blooms on our camellia bush, but I wonder if we have some bulbs coming up, too. Your red berries are pretty and cheery! I love your shawl...it is beautiful so far and I hope you will enjoy finishing it!

Some gentle shopping ( and a treat for me - perfume) a visit from eldest son and his family. DH cooked a lovely steak - that was Saturday. On Sunday a lovely , lazy tie. DH went for a very long walk I did some crafting and cooked a roast dinner.

...Sweet tiny piggy's. The girls will love them.<br />I've found that you just can't have to many skeins of yarn. An alpaca & cotton mix will keep the cotton from stretching if you make clothing.

We use to leave all our leaves on the yard so they could continue the fertilizer cycle but now Hubs picks them up in a big vacuum thingie and puts them on the compost in the back. So we are still using them for good dirt.
