Taygete

DSC05115
I've finished striping! I've also had a great yarn moment. The ivory (Dream in Color Smooshy in Crying Dove) was a big 100 gram skein but the grey (The Loopy Ewe Solid Series in Dove) comes in smaller, 50 gram skeins. I had bought two of the grey skeins to do my Taygete and had planned on just adding the second skein in the striped section when I ran out of the first skein. Do you see the little swirl of grey yarn? About 14 inches long? That's the end of the first skein. Yes, I was able to do the entire striped section of Taygete, following the directions as the pattern is written, in a single skein of The Loopy Ewe's yarn! I'm sure you can imagine the happy dance that took place here over the weekend. Logan even brought me the bathmat to help out with the celebration (didn't really need the bathmat to celebrate but Logan's a little crazy). I'm now on the lace section which is moving pretty quickly.
