St. Petersburg, FL recently got a new yarn shop Stash - A place for Yarn! It's so very exciting because we haven't had an LYS for a while now. The closest yarn shops were across bridges or at least a 30-45 min drive. This new yarn store is only 10-15 mins from both my work and home...can't really beat that!
Kristin, the shop owner, asked me to knit a sample for the shop as she
was preparing to open. I was more than eager to step up to the
challenge. She handed me this beautiful skein of Malabrigo Sock in the
archangel colorway. I had never used Malabrigo sock but have wanted to
for sometime. Picking the pattern was not hard as I have been wanting
to knit a Martina Behm pattern and the sock yarn screamed that it needed
to be a Brickless. So here it is all set up in the shop and looking so
beautiful!
Project details
Pattern:
Brickless
by Martina Behm
Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn Sock colorway Archangel
Cast on: July 1, 2014
Finished: July 14, 2014
Notes: The yarn knit up so nicely and the pattern is so well written. I had several long drives when we went out of town for a weekend and some low key evening knitting time so this knit up very quickly. Since it's a shop sample, I don't get to keep it so another one of these will be on my needles soon.
If you find yourself visiting St. Pete, FL anytime soon, check out our new LYS Stash - A place for yarn downtown and check this beauty out for yourself. Let her know Barknknit sent you!
Happy Knitting!
What are you knitting? What is your latest finished object?
Natalie,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for knitting this up for the shop! It is gorgeous! The pattern really brought out the beauty of this lovely yarn.
Stunning!! I'm not knitting nearly enough and the baby blanket is in danger of not being finished for Charlie's arrival next week. Yikes!
