Yes, Mia, Alpaca Fair Isle

Posted on | April 6, 2005 | 5 Comments

Here’s a peek at the alpaca fair Isle sweater I plan to start this weekend after I retrieve my yarn from South Jersey. It’s from the Winter Vogue Knitting International and is knit up in Blue Sky Alpacas. I’ve never knit with Alpaca before, I can’t wait! It also has some little sequins and beads around the cuffs and hem that are kinda fun.

    Hi Melissa

    You’ll love the alpaca. It feels like butter and very scratch-free. I made a flower basket shawl with alpaca and now I can’t get enough of it. :)

    I really like that pattern! Usually I’m not very fond of fair isle, but that’s really nice.

    That’s really pretty. I didn’t notice the sequins and beads when I saw it in the magazine. Ooh la la!

    Yay! I love this sweater and I am SO glad someone is making it! I will keep track of your progress… I’m sure it will inspire me to make my own.
