Off the needles

 

I finished this last weekend. It got a spa day along with a couple other sweaters. Soak in the tub a good rinse into the washer on spin then lounge on the deck in the sun. What a beautiful day that was! I even crowded a couple sweaters together so I could sit on the deck in the sun.  This sweater got a little time in the dryer and came out softer than it went in. The yarn is Cobasi dk weight by Hikoo a combination of cotton, bamboo and silk. It was wonderful to knit but skeins seemed short of the 140 yards on the label it was a very stretchy yarn so maybe the yards was figured stretched. I had to order one more skein to finish the hem ribbing.

Still wearing wool here rain turned to snow yesterday and lots of wind again. April snow won’t last long.  Ann
