I Love Lettuce
I really love this yarn that came in the mail today from Knit Picks! Nothing like coming home from a crappy day of work to find this on your doorstep... I am super excited to start the hourglass sweater with this yarn, but am going to hold out until the weekend so I can finish up my Aran Pocketbook and my Classic Socks. I also need to get a new set of needles. This is my first official sweater, so bear with me through this one!
My Andean Silk Yarn that showed up today
A close-up of this fabulous lettuce colored yarn
Since I made another trip to Allendale Farm this past weekend for some soil, I picked up a few other things. Introducing orange cherry, sweet red, and large yellow tomato plants in my new yellow metal planter and a pretty picture of Ms. Geranium sitting atop the table...

Pretty colour of yarn. I had to laugh when I saw the title - my LYS is Lettuce Knit!
Very pretty color. Your first sweater? Exciting! You'll do fine. If you need any help, just holler. I can hear you out in the 'burbs, you know.

That green looks wonderful.. matches the leaves of your plants! I'll be interested to see what you think about the Andean Silk.
Your very first sweater - how exciting! I love the color and can't wait to hear what you think about the yarn.
I love the Andean Silk so! I had an opportunity to fondle it at Circles during the Harlot's book signing. This just reminds me that I need to place a KnitPicks order soon!
ummmm that sweater is gonna be awesome!!
The color looks yummy too!! I will be ordering from there as soon as the flying fingers trip is over LOL cant spend any money on yarn before that =)
Hows the Aran bag coming???
Hello!
Thanks for all your nice comments! I am super happy with this yarn and can't wait to get started. The Aran bag is blocked and I am about half way through the handle (which I hope to finish tonight). I still have the lining to sew up and in, but I am figuring it will be done and ready to debut tomorrow night! Yay!
that colour is divine! I've got some noro sitting her to make the hourglass sweater...just waiting for a new needle to arrive in a box of sock yarn from Germany. Unfortunately it on the slow boat.
Oooooh... Isn't that yarn fabulous? I have one skein of that color in my stash. Maybe it's time to order a few more and join you in the hourglass sweater knitting? :)
