Knitting Notes

Star Crossed Beret

I’ve cast on a Star-Crossed Slouchy Beret in the Fibre Company’s Canopy Worsted, in the Yerba Mate colorway. I was hoping to use Malabrigo Worsted, which is what the pattern called for, and I knew that my LYS had had a great selection when I was in there before Christmas. Well, apparently it was a good Christmas seller, because there was nary a fiber to be seen when I was in there last weekend. So instead, I grabbed the Canopy Worsted. I’ve worked with the Canopy in fingering weight before, and really enjoyed it, and so far, the Worsted is equally enjoyable.
