YPF-The Not Mine Edition!

What does she mean by that you say! Well, it's not my yarn!

It is a lovely yarn, in fact, it's name is Little Lovely in Malabrigo Worsted. These lovely shades of pinkness belong to a friend in my knitting group. She hasn't knit a lot, but does beautiful crochet. So, we are in the midst of a knitting/crocheting swap.

I think I have the better end of the deal though! This yarn is so soft!!

Malabrigo Worsted

So nice on the fingers and hands!

Malabrigo Worsted As you can see, the Hurry Up Spring Armwarmers are in progress are for her. I am getting a scarf knit in LLaces Worsted, which I'll post when she's done..which will probably be tomorrow at her rate!

I KNEW I recognized "Little Lovely" ! Believe it or not, I used this in one of my first projects for a FELTED purse. What a waste!

Such pretty yarn! Love the variegation. Pretty and interesting, yet not 'aggressive'.

I've used the same exact color of Malabrigio for fingerless mitts too http://decisions-decisions-decisions.blogspot.com/search/label/Malabrigio

and I also made it in Velvet grapes

Then I made the Calorimetry from Knitty in it and love it all. I want a sweater from this stuff.
