Twisp of Fate

I finally finished my Windfeather stole, which I started last July.  This was a kit from Carol Sunday at Sunday Knits and I had chosen the High Country colorway (one of 8 colorways).  I purchased it when she first brought out the pattern under her Beta Sale discount.  At the time she only had one of the eight colorways knitted up and she offered a further store credit if you were the first to finish one and allow her to have it for photography (see link above).

Here it is before blocking:

I checked her website and she still did not have finished items for the “Earth & Sky” and the “High Country” colorways.  So I emailed her and she sent me a prepaid shipping label and off it went to her yesterday for photography.  Kind of cool!

Her line of yarns, spun and dyed for her by a small mill in Italy, are absolutely wonderful and I will wear and treasure this stole for a long time.

We still have snow on the ground, but are having a very early warming trend, so who knows how long it will last.  Usually we have snow on the ground and ski trails in good condition at least through February!
