Project: Peppermint Ginger
Pattern: Ginger, designed by Kim Hargreaves (free on Ravelry)
Yarn: Rio de la Plata handspun kettle dyed 100% wool
Yardage: 560 yards in stash
Needles: Size 7 & 9
Cast on: July 16 2011
Notes: Another project with China group on Ravelry. The yarn is a lovely single spun, thick and thin, very lofty at places, I hope it'll bloom nicely after a wash. The pattern is for a summer top, with crew neck in front and V neck in the back. Since I'm knitting in this heavy wool yarn, mine will be more like a layering piece. It will be a little longer than the pattern, with V neck on the front and back. Looks like I have enough yarn for some sleeves too.

Adorable. I like the layering idea...it can be worn throughout the year that way.
I love it, especially the color!
Your yarn reminds me of the big lollipops that I used to desire at the county fair. Even your title sounds tasty today. Give that sweet pooch of your some pets from me and a sniff from LittleDog.
Is it just me, or are you are posting a whole (or nearly whole) sweater every couple of weeks?
This one is lovely too. :-)
Love the color of this yarn! You are definitely whizzing through these projects. :)
Thanks ladies!
@Kathy, Denise, this one is a quick knit. Once I start the next cable project I'll be back to my a-few-rows-a-day self ;-)
@Ally, I should post a new picture of the Rascal soon!
What a pretty color! I agree with Kathryn...you make so many large projects, it makes my head spin!! XXO-
This is really cute! I like it!
