This one has been in the works for quite some time. Looking at my queue on Ravelry, it got added in 2008! "Kaua tehtud, kaunikene" is all I can say about it which roughly translates as "things that tend to take a long time to make turn out well".
Counterpane Carpet Bag by Carrie Brenner
Started: ages ago (I tried three different yarns before settling on this alpaca blend)
Finished: 01/29/10
Needles: US 6
It was a very straightforward pattern and size 6 needles helped a lot as well. I haven't really touched anything bigger than US 4 for a while so this was like a spring break of knitting. Up next - some baby hats and pants and Newcastle pullover for myself out of some Jo Sharp DK Wool Tweed. Farrah and I are going to knit the Featherweight Cardigan in February. While the pattern is written for lace weight I'll be knitting mine out of Joseph Galler Superfine Prime Alpaca in a yummy dark gray;)
Muide, Sinu kootud tumerohelisest alpakast hõlmikkampsun päästis mu sel talvel. Hästi kerge ja soe ning mõnus panna sulemantli alla. Iga päev, kui selle selga panen, mõtlen tänulikkusega Sinu peale :)
