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!
