I set up my Ultimate Sweater Machine under the carport again today. Two-year-old Ella cooperated, and now I have three new swatches for my latest (and I do mean latest! ) INKnitters article.
Coats Moda Dea ‘Sassy Stripes’ yarn was a happy surprise. It is a long-repeat, variegated yarn, therefore the sassy stripes. I loved this color-way, with the pink and red and mottled gray stripes. It knitted like a dream with keyplate 2-dot. I’m contemplating a cardigan for nine-year-old Eva, or maybe even for myself with this color, called ‘Crush.’
By the time you see the sample in the magazine, it will be much changed. I’m writing about how to let variegated yarn inspire you to play, play, play.
