Sprinkle


I finished another Sprinkle sweater for my new baby niece Laina.  This was knit with some Koigu PPM for the body and Shibui for the cuffs/collar/border.  The yarn was purchased at Jimmy Beans Wool in Reno.  I don't think you can ever have too much Koigu laying around.  I really like this pattern...until it comes time to attach the sleeves and weave in all the ends and all the BLOCKING. 

As much as I love Koigu and their thousands of handpaint colorways, it seems I can never find a Koigu solid color that will coordinate nicely with a handpaint colorway.  I am very happy with this color combination but the Shibui fabric is a little limper than the Koigu fabric.
