FO Friday

DSC00460

This is my latest FO.  Ravelry link to project page.  The blue is a yarn I picked up at the Massachusetts Wool and Fiber festival.  It is by Bittersweet Woolery.  Once I decided on the project, which is for the waves challenge in Nerd Wars, I needed the white yarn.  I don’t buy a lot of white…I have some acrylic white and some others, but since the blue had sparkle in it, I wanted to white to also have some sparkle.  So thankfully I found the Dreams in Color in Crying Dove at Eat Sleep Knit.

Lovely pattern, definitely works well with a "waves" theme ;) Good plan to get the sparkly white yarn to go with the sparkles in the blue, I think. Plus, seems more wave like to me, having sparkles!

It looks great, well done! And I agree with Natalie, the sparkles really add to the wave effect!

Ooo, I like it! Been looking at cowls lately. Maybe I should make something like this.

That's so pretty. It so reminds me of the seaside. December can't come any faster, one whole month of nothing but seaside!!!
