fall colors


i started another clapotis today, while riding home from DC with susan. this is that hand-dyed cotton yarn that i bought from a fellow blogger, who bought it at a yarn shop in new orleans some time ago. it's hard to get an accurate representation of the colors but they are stunning ... purples and browns and oranges and greens. clapotis is fun to knit, even if the yarn itself can be somewhat annoying at times. it gets a little "splitty" but the pretty colors and fun pattern more than make up for it! i hope to finish the increase section today, and maybe even get to the straight section :-)

  1. We all hate yarn that splits. I hope you get the hang of it.

  2. The trouble looks like it's worth it, the colors you chose look gorgeous!
