Love Letter Larch is Complete!

Love Letter Larch

I struggled with this pattern quite a lot, which surprised me as I expected this to be a rather "straight forward" pattern.  I did a lot of un-knitting due to problems along the way, which made me feel as if I should have been done with this days ago.  Whatever the case maybe, I am pleased with the finished project and have a recipient in mind (a gal at work who is retiring in February).  The yarn is my favorite thing about this project. The yarn, a generous gift from my friend, Kerri, is Miss Babs' Yummy Superwash Sock and Baby yarn. It's a treat to work with. It drapes nicely and knits up nicely.  If you ever come across some Miss Babs yarn like this, don't hesitate... buy, buy, buy!

Pattern:  Larch by Tinks and Frogs Rue
