Now available for purchase: Soho!
At long last I've finished writing, editing, and photographing that shawl I was designing in Koigu Cashmere! Introducing Soho, a wrap that can be worn as a scarf or stole!
I designed this wrap specifically to work with Koigu and other handpainted yarns. Knit on size 5 needles and worked in a combination of a few simple patterns, this wrap knits up quickly and lets the gorgeous yarn be the star. The unusual construction plays up the variegation of the yarn and helps keep your interest! Here's a shot of the gorgeous center panel:
I knit the sample with 6 skeins of Koigu Cashmere, but you can use any one of the many gorgeous sock yarns that are on the market today.
Requires size 5 circular and double pointed needles. Pattern is suitable for an advanced beginner, as it requires only Knit, Purl, and YO.

Lovely pattern. Simple and interesting at the same time. I wondered what I was going to do with my heavier sock yarns now that I realize I prefer wearing socks from very thin yarn. This is a great way to make a dent in my sock knitting stash. And all this from the yarn for 3 pairs of socks—very enticing
thanks

That’s a knockout! Wondering how many projects you’ll be knitting with Koigu Cashmere now that you don’t get a discount :-). Hope you hoarded it before you left!
