flora

I found out not so long ago that my sister is allergic to wool. Not unusual I know.
So I hunted around my LYS and found 'Grinasco' 30% alpaca and 10% acrylic.
It's beautiful to knit with and quite chunky a bit like 'Brown sheep pride'.
The pattern is Flora by Kate Kuckro, free from KNITTY.
The only adjustment I made was stitching a few green glass beads into the centre of it.
I've been wanting to make one for myself but I guess it will have to go down on my new projects list for next year.
