Well my Flax sweater is almost done. So I have started to look for a new project. After much time on Ravelry, I decided on the Cap Sleeve Lattice Top from Purl Bee. I think it will make a cute summer top.
As for the yarn, I purchased Cascade Ultra Pima Fine in yellow and teal from WEBS online. I always get wary about online yarn shopping. First off the colors tend to look different when you get them and secondly you miss out on the sensory experience of purchasing yarn. I mean who doesn’t love caressing yarn? However, I wanted to try some new brands of yarn and my LYS doesn’t carry ultra fine Pima cotton.
Two days ago I got my yarn. I am not sure about the colors though . The texture is wonderful and soft, but I don’t know about the colors. The teal is a little dark and the yellow is a little light. I am deciding to mull over it for a few days before I exchanged it.
What do you think? Will it work?
Is that pic your almost finished project, or the pic from the pattern? Either way, it’s very elegant.
It is the sample from the pattern/website. Check out purl bee if you haven’t they have a lot of elegant and chic patterns.
Love it!!!
Thanks!
I love the pattern too. The colors you chose are nice… the yellow looks like it’s almost white, though! I’m going to check out that website too. Thanks!
It might be the lighting. It is like a very light lemon. Thanks for the feedback!
