"Mermaid at Byron Bay"

Here it is....I totally love this sweater!
(I think the colour is a bit green in this photo - totally my fault
 - too much tweaking of the photo!)

See how wide it actually is?  I am cracking up while posing like this!
it looks great against red brick too!


By now I'll have waved good bye to my fellow Rowan Ambassadors!  But I'm still in the UK on Holiday with a friend....

 In the mean time, if you want to see a bit of what's coming up for Rowan Fall/Winter?  "Like" my Life Lackadaisical Facebook page...because over the next few weeks....leading up to the July 15 release date for Rowan's Autumn Winter Collection, I'll be sharing my favourites of the new season!

Be back soon!

Happy Knitting,

Anne

    Lin, the pattern is a combination of two of the designs in the Rowan "Pure Linen" booklet. I will be doing a blog post on how I combined them in a couple of weeks.......

Bead Whimsey with Sivia Harding That was the name of the class that I took at the Toronto Knitters Frolic.  I have attended many workshops in my time, so it takes a special workshop to catch my attention.
