Brian Smith has a new shawl pattern knit using Noro Ito and Cascade 220. You can purchase the pattern for Esben on Ravelry.
Worked top down, in two contrasting yarns. Cabled slipped stitches create a zig zag pattern across your work. Finished with a seed stitch border.
I love knitting with Ito.
Noro's Ito yarn is a kaleidoscope of color and texture that ignites the imagination. Ito is not just any yarn—it's a slubby, worsted weight wonder, crafted from 100% wool and packaged in generous 200-gram skeins boasting 437 yards of creative potential. Prepare to be mesmerized as you knit with Ito, as its ever-changing color spectrum unfolds before your eyes. One of Noro's most vibrant creations, Ito weaves together a symphony of hues, daring you to count the myriad colors dancing within each ball. A single skein of Ito is more than enough to knit a captivating scarf, but it also shines brilliantly when used for head-turning sweaters and statement accessories. Embrace the challenge and let your creativity soar with Noro's Ito yarn—where every stitch tells a story of color, texture, and endless inspiration.
These are the seven newest colours that arrived for spring. Any of them would look amazing in the shawl.
We have great news. Beth brought dad home from the hospital this morning. They are at home watching golf sleeping. Dad was in good spirits when I talked to him this morning. He is going to stay with us for now. Last night Beth and I got the guest room ready for him. We moved in a huge TV (HUGE) so he can watch his own shows while we are watching downstairs. He complained about the small TV in the hospital - there better not be any complaints now 😀. The dogs were very excited to see him.
I’m really early today. I started this post last night but didn’t have time to finish it. I have a bit of time in the store today so I’m doing it now. Just in case things are busy at home tonight which I think they will be.
