V is for Variegated

Variegated yarn is fun to knit with. I guess that's why I fall for it so often, even though I find it challenging to match the yarn to a pattern. Here's a sneak peek of my latest variegated project.

Variegated Yarn by **Plain & Fancy Sheep & Wool

This yarn is especially beautiful and wonderful to knit with! The ever-shifting colors kept my needles flying and before I knew it, this project was finished. Yes, finished before I even had a chance to mention I was working on it. You can probably guess what it is from the picture, but I'm going to save the details until after the photo shoot this weekend.

**Plain and Fancy will be one of the vendors this weekend at Kid 'N Ewe fiber festival in Boerne, Texas.

I agree variegated yarn is fun...always a new surprise!!! I think I like the FO better in solids though. Go figure!

I'm a little envious you will see Grayce again!

Jennifer said...

Lovely, I can't figure out what the finish object is though. I'll have to wait until you post about it. :)

Ooh, Plain and Fancy! Lucky you!!

What!? Fiber festival instead of fishing this weekend!? That must be a hard choice for you!

Your yarn is beautiful!

Sorry for the confusion. I'm not going to the fiber festival this weekend, though if I were I'd certainly buy more Plain & Fancy.

I love variegated yarn, too, but not when it decides to pool.

Your project looks intriguing. I can't wait to see it finished.

Ooh! Looks nice, I can't wait for the photo shoot!

It is just the colours that I would have fallen for too. Lovely. Can't wait to see the whole thing.

Beautiful. Can't wait to see the finished project.

I'm not, apparently, very good at guessing, since I have no clue what this project is. I do, however, love the little eyelet row in the midst of the stockinette. Have a nice weekend.

Wonderful shades of variegation happening in that yarn, Tracy! Love the color way, and can't wait to see your finished piece! I like variegated yarn too, but it is hard to pair the right colorful yarn with the right project. Pity you're not going to the fiber festival :o( We were hoping for your knitter's eye view from there! ;o) Happy weekend ((HUGS))

A pullover with raglan sleeves? What ever it is, it looks beautiful. Great yarn color!

hmmm - hard to guess what it is... but my thought (since it went so quickly) is a cowl.

I love varigated yarns for the same reason, It's so fun to watch the colors emerge and blend.

Very, very pretty! I can't wait to see the photo shoot pictures. :)
