Fuzz + Shadow
Thanks everyone for your great feedback on Ultra Raglan.
A little progress report: it's actually been cool enough to wear it.
Around the house, to the dogpark, in fact it's just the thing for flyfishing in Newfoundland.
But...
it's already pilling a little.
No matter...I'm already on to the next thing.
Jo Sharp Rare Comfort Kid Mohair in Char.
(Yep, more JS. Nope, don't have shares).
Ah mohair, my first love.
I really.
Really.
Love.
Mohair.
A lot.
Except I find it peskily difficult to photograph.
How do you capture the unique texture?
I ended up photographing the fuzz shadow.
It's going to go a bit quiet around needle's edge - Scout is going in for surgery tomorrow and I'll be dividing my time between work, Scout's bed and a pot of mushy chicken risotto perpetually on the bubble.
Have a good weekend everyone.

Poor Scout! What's the surgery for (if it's okay to ask)?
Scoutie! What's wrong? Give her lots of pats from me.
Fuzz shadow neat trick.
But don't you find mohair scritchy?
wow, another mohair lover. i love mohair too.
this is a gorgeous color!
i have some mohair on a cone waiting for the dye pot this summer. a mohair sweater is on my long list of upcoming projects.
look foward to watching your progress with this.
Hope Scout's surgery goes well and recovery is quick and painless!
See you when you get a moment again. :)
P.S. JS Kid Comfort is wonderful...can't wait to see what you're going to make with yours.
