Alicia Tabard


This is the 3rd "lankahamsterineule" that I managed to knit in March. (for some reason it always takes time to get photos taken...)

Pattern: Alicia Tabard by Louisa Harding (ravelry)
Yarn: Karaoke by South West Trading Company (a lovely soysilk-wool blend)
Needles: 4mm

Have had it on my Ravelry queue for ages now- and I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. Love that colour. .. which brings me to this:
Yarn from my stash. Oh yes. Very close shades of pumpkin and rust. (and I bought the MerLin and WoolCotton within one week in January! without realising at all that I'm hoarding for that warm colour...)

To finish this with some other colour: lovely easter decorations. Quick update on other stuff: Easter's gone, I had my birthday last week and I'm planning to gift myself some yarn... I'm still suffering from work stress and yearning for holiday , warmth and sun. Luckily the spring is finally here - we have less than 30cm snow left on our yard! So the summer is coming. Slowly... but it's all for better now.
