We have carried Andeamo for a couple seasons now...and when I saw this gorgeous Worsted Weight and PAINTED version...it had to be added to the list. This 2 ply yarn is bouncy and airy...but the wool is a little more rustic. If you are looking for a super soft yarn, this might not be your favorite. But if you are looking for a lofty, breathable, long-wearing yarn...this is for you!!!!
This new version of Andeamo Lite comes in 6 colors that scream “knit me”! From classic stockinette, to Jody’s trademark cables, these new designs will please all the cable junkies and inspire those yet to discover the cable craze! Think colorwork coats, cozy cowls, and cabled sweaters in this toasty blend of wool and alpaca. Andeamo Lite is comprised of two thick plies that give the finished yarn an excellent cush factor perfect for snuggly finished projects that will keep you warm all winter.

Of course today, when I was ready to blog about this new sample (because it was dry and done blocking) I'm dressed up for Halloween (I'm Weird Barbie BTW)
Ok....so this pattern!!! It is called the Denver Cowl and it was a super fun knit. It's a double wrap cowl and if I were to knit it again I would make sure I weigh my yarn after the ribbing....then I would just repeat the cowl pattern until I had just enough to do the ribbing and bind off! You know my mission to have NO LEFTOVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
