It looks really great-I love that color!
all,
thanks much for your kind comments and praise! i’m thrilled to be almost done…seriously, i think its taken me six months to get this far. this graduate school thing is really getting in the way of my knitting!
jen, the pattern is called “march basic” and is available for free on the Berocco (sp?) website. the yarn is UltraAlpaca (also from Berocco) and it is fabulously soft.
i’ll be posting another picture when the whole shebang is really, truly, finally done.
best friday to all.
