I received a new coat for Christmas from my dad, who was horrified not pleased that I was tooling around in only a down vest. So, I have the coat equivalent of my cheerful pink vest in a cheerful turquoise.
I knew I’d be knitting the accessories to match in bulky or superbulky yarn, because I’m a post-graduate student with a full-time career as well, and I’d like to wear the hat and mittens this winter.
I chose Knit Picks’ Wool of the Andes Bulky in Caribou.
The mittens’ pattern was inspired by the mittens Bella wears in Twilight
and New Moon
(Ravelry).
As a companion hat, I chose one I’ve been wanting to knit for a while: the Irish hiking hat
(Ravelry).
Looking forward to seeing these chunky cables appear on my needles!
