But that's not black..

... I know, but who can knit black when it pretends to be summer outside. The sun & birds wake me up in the morning, and I've left the house several times without the extra pair of (self-knitted) socks. And especially not when you've got two skeins of fantastically intense pink Colinette Mohair, which has been calling you for months. So finally I made a decision on what to use it for, and here it is. A very simple pattern, since there's plenty of activity in the yarn itself.

Again: thank you Nanna. She was my very nice and secret nordic friend in the first round who gave me the first skein.

I took the picture at night with the flash, but I still think the colours look reasonably close to the real ones. Still haven't done much reading on digital photography...

And now, I really will try to get that black thing out of my way and into may wardrobe.

I'm impressed that you could resist the call of your Colinette so long. I find that it usually reaches out of the closet and refuses to let go until I do something with it!

Welcome to your new blog home!

The shawl looks beautiful! I love Colinette and it's great to see how that shade looks in mohair. Oh dear, I feel a bout of yarn shopping coming on! :-)
