A good and fine start


This is the start of my Rowan Fine Tweed project. It will be a sweater for me, based on a pattern ("Halla") by Marie Wallin
-only, I will totally change it ;0) It was the colours of the original sweater that caught my attention, so I just wanted to buy the patternbook and the yarn and get started. When it turned out the store did not have the sufficient amount of 4 of the 5 colours in stock I was actually not annoyed. It was more of an excuse to start some serious wool squeezing and creative colour juggling. I think I emptied all the Fine Tweed shelves six times before I finally - all sweaty and rosecheeked - managed to settle for the 16 x 25 g that came back home with me. My main alterations to the actual construction will be to knit in the round, and to make a ragland instead of inserted sleeves.

As for the photo; it is taken by using the toy camera effect which turned out to reproduce the colours of the wool quite accurately.
