So I cast on Bee Balm by Fiona Ellis (from the Nashua booklet "Style: Lace and Eyelets".
This pattern should be called "Cindy's Must Cast This On NOW!", as it's got all those lovely little things I so love. It's a cardigan. The pattern is photographed in a lovely shade of green (never hurts). It's got pretty lace. It's got cables. It's feminine, yet not frou frou-ish. It's a MUST KNIT!
The yarn was a birthday splurge (ran into Ann at AC Moore and she had an extra 25% off total coupon... much better than 50% off one item coupon I had). The yarn is Spa by NatuallyCaron.com. Beautiful sheen, drape and colors. I decided on "ocean spray", and remembered this pattern when I got home.
So I cast on a sleeve (aka: my swatch) and I'm very happy with it. Maybe I'll even stay concentrated on it and get it done (would help if I wasn't spending 12 hours a day playing Fallout 3).
