That's gorgeous. You did a beautiful job! I remember seeing that yarn in the store and really wanting to buy some -- now I guess I'll have to! :) How many balls of the yarn did you use?

It took 5 balls to complete it.

I agree with you about that yarn! It and your two shawls are stunning. BTW, have you looked into modeling yet? I keep waiting to see you in the magazines!

Beautiful....I have not seen this yarn anywhere and I do not have a LYS...where can it be purchased?

 

I know Rowan's website has a list of all the stores and internet sites that sell their yarn (it's the "stockists" list) -- maybe you can buy it online! (That's probably what I'm going to do; I just remembered that when I saw the yarn I was visiting a different city. They don't stock it at my LYS. :()

That's really pretty! I've been using the Paton'sw SWS, which is also 70% wool, 30% soy, and I love it.

 

Where did you find the Rowan's? Do craft stores carry it or did you get it at a LYS?

Ive worked with sws as well, and this yarn is thinner.

i love it it looks so nice. the lys here dont stock anything with soy yet, i guess i just have to wait a little while longer.

p.s. you kind of look like a 50's pinup version of cathrine heigl

OOooooOOOooooh! She is pretty! Thank you!:hug
