Another pair of fetching from Knitty.com

My sister requested a pair in blue or cream when she saw my green ones (peek in my journal to see). They really knit up sooo fast. But the yarn really made it nice. It is Patons SWS (soy wool stripes) ((70% wool, 30% soy!)) in natural blue. The size of the project takes advantage of the self striping incredibly well and each tone just melts into the next. It's a pain to work with though because it is splitty. It unwinds itself while you work with it so you have to work to keep the strands together. Other than that I love the colorways it comes in. It was on sale at Michael's (I think) ((maybe I used a coupon)) so I also bought Natural Geranium just because it was pretty.
