Yarn Choices

The Great thing about this pattern is you can use pretty much any worsted or sport weight yarn. So go as cheap or luxurious as you want. The uber-thrifty/ budget conscious could even do this in Wool-Ease. Myself, I chose Wool of the Andes by knitpicks, because it's cheap and wool. Yay! (Although now I'm thinking I should have gone with Swish because I know I'll pull the 'if I wash it on delecate...')

Anyway, my yarn in all it's glory:



The colors are Chocolate as the main color, Fern, Snickerdoodle, and Winter Night. The yarn is a little rough, but will probably soften up and shipping seemed to take forever. But they're really pretty.

I have not done my gage swatch yet, and probably won't cast on until this weekend or early next week because my family and I are in the middle of packing and moving.
