February Lady Sweater

At long last I’m back to my knitting. Well, strictly speaking I was never far away from it, but I really haven’t had much knitting time in the last couple of months. 
I was in Denmark a few weeks ago and went with my mum to her local yarn store and fell into temptation – again! I loved the colours, when I looked at this yarn, but convinced myself to leave it where it was, until I made the mistake of touching it. YUMMY – it’s as gorgeous as it looks! “Lucca – super soft merino wool” says the label, “practically edible” says I! The wool is labelled with the name of the shop, but makes no reference to the maker. Oh well, I’ll have to get mum on the hunt, when I find out how much I’m short of…

I have Pamela Wynne’s excellent February Lady Sweater, the pattern of which is available for free on Ravelry, on the needles and can’t wait to complete it. I still have 101 other UFOs lying about but this one is a clear favourite before I’ve even completed it!
