Noro Dreaming

Silly me... it just occurred to me that I can "borrow" the photos and show them here! Here are the three sweaters I want to make the most:

This book looks like it's filled with great patterns, but these are the three I'd start with.

Jess: sure, it would be great to know the names and yarn requirements. I think I'd stick with Silk Garden for Klaralund... I especially like that colourway, and soft is good.

I love the first one (blue colorway). I have never even seen Noro yarn-sounds beautiful!

It is beautiful... but boy, is it ever pricey. :P

unfortunately that silk garden colorway is long since discontinued... :( (i love that one too!)

if I ever get home tonight I'll followup with the yarn reqts and such. :)

You could always "froogle" that colorway. I know there is one similar, #203 that is still available.

I also am in love with Klaralund and the silk garden yarn. I am thinking about asking my husband for the yarn/book for Christmas. This sweater was one of the reasons I learned to knit a few months ago. It is a goal of mine.

I think it might be available... there's a #8 that looks just like it at the site I was thinking of buying from. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. (And if I do indeed have my funding...)
