I am going to knit this
Using this yarn, a soft, heavenly, robins egg blue worsted weight cashmere.
I am very happy about it. So are my kids.
Don't you just love a yarn everyone can get excited about?

Dreamy Knit Shrug
This is the Dream in Color Shrug I'm knitting for my Mom out of Jade Sapphire Cashmere, exactly halfway done.
I seem to spend a lot of time spreading it out and looking at it. I like the lacy pattern very much. I love how the Cashmere feels. Knitting this pattern in this yarn reinforces my belief that life is too short to knit with cheap yarn.
This is a surprisingly easy pattern — the repeats are short and quickly remembered. I've inserted markers to make it easy to keep up with where I am, so I can knit this in lectures or while talking with friends over coffee. It looks a bit long, or perhaps that's just wishful thinking on my part, as my Mom is smaller than I am, so if it's too large, well, um, we all know how that one goes.
