Picking a yarn
Still deciding which yarn would be best for this project. I would really like a cotton blend...any suggestions? Thinking about Rowan Calmer (never used before) or JoSharp Desert Garden (haven't used either). If not, I will break the bank and buy the intended Cash Iroha. Here is a discount site for it...I read another canadian in the KAL was searching for it.

Happy Knitting!

Ooh, it would be lovely in Calmer! The Jo Sharp is also a nice cotton. The Calmer would be lighter though.
Have fun with the shopping! :)
i think the calmer would be lovely, too. or maybe the organic cotton from blue sky alpacas. that stuff is so soft!
Hey! That was me with the Noro problems. I'd already found that site (great prices!) but I'm a little down on the colour selection. Thinking a sub is really the only option for this one!
Thanks though!
