Introducing Wandering Wildflower
Wandering Wildflower is a very versatile pattern and can be worn as a scarf or a cowl. If you make the version in the pattern it will use close to 450 yards of fingering weight yarn. The pattern can easily be modified to accommodate a skein with less yardage by casting on fewer stitches. Shannon who test knit for me used an alternating color for the eyelet section. It's really quite striking. Just waiting for her to upload pictures. We are giving her slack though. I think she is still unpacking boxes from her move last weekend. If that won't put a delay into things, I don't know what will!
Yes, the pattern name was changed :) A friend suggested that Kracken might not be the best choice for something that is wrapped around ones neck. Lindr came up with the name and will receive a copy of the pattern (Lindr please contact me via Ravelry and I will send you a copy right away). JudyH also will be receiving a copy from our random drawing. Thank you to everyone who participated!
I'm packing today to leave for TNNA tomorrow. It's exciting to go and get to see friends that we don't see that often. I can't believe it's been over a year since Ive seen Anne and Erica! Im really ecstatic about getting to meet Carrie aka IrishGirlieKnits this year! Ive always loved knitting her patterns and have done some test knitting for her in the past.
If you are going to TNNA this weekend, please stop by the Shalimar Yarns booth and say hi. I will be working all day on Saturday and Sunday morning. Ive finished my Tempest sweater and will be wearing it. It's hot pink - Love Potion and gray - Ore so I should be easy to spot.
Wow, you're first photo is stunning!! What is the yarn used?
ReplyDeleteHoping to see a photo of your Tempest sweater too! Enjoy TNNA!
LOL! I agree with your friend about Kracken :) Wandering Wildflower is a lovely name.
