I am knitting this with larger needles, following the 40-42 size, but using the 52-54 lengths and measurements.

My yarn is handspun from the World of Wool, Phoenix colourway, which contains quite a large amount of silk.

I was introduced to this colourway by the Spinning Weal, when I managed to forget anything to spin with over the Easter Holidays. So everytime I knit the project I think of all the delightful places I purchased some more from Dave and Sarah as they attended shows over the spring of 2011.

Lovely memories to keep me warm.
