Wow–the Sagrantino is lovely!
Thanks! I will look at those!
I’m thinking (read: Obsessively debating with myself) about working up this pattern for my cotton red/white/blue yarn I was fighting with last year. I have 800m of a ‘2’ weight. I’m not sure how it will work up… I really need to stop acquiring yarns without patterns in mind for them!
