All! The! Yellow! Things!


I make no apologies. Yellow is a favorite of mine, and it has taken me a while to find shades that I can wear next to my face and not look like death warmed over.  While I generally like my burns-in-the moonlight complexion, it can be challenging with certain shades that I dearly love.

But! I think I may have cracked it with this little cowl thing. It was some left over Malabrigo Arroyo in Sunset and I lurve it so much. 

My only complaint is that it is super wash, but that is minor. I’ve made a very good dent in my stash making baby sweaters these past months as I seem to have a lot of pregnant friends all of a sudden!  

The pattern is Kate Davies’ Sprung Rhythm, which is one of two patterns that made me spring (heh—see what I did there?) for the Making Light book in the spring.  It is gorgeous, by the way.

The other one is the Dorchas/Solas sweater, which I’m working on now in a glorious autumnal red.  Stay tuned; I’m in the home stretch on it.


Not much else to say except it was a fun knit once I got into the charted section (the ribbed bottom was tedious but thankfully didn’t take long).  And I have only the tiniest little bit left—I had to unravel the gauge swatch to bind off!  A win for the stash!
