I made some mittens out of it last winter (the orange/pink colorway) and have some grey/red for another pair. I was really surprised to see how well it held up-no pilling!

Be forewarned that I felt that it split a bit. I really had to pay attention. It was also really expensive considering the yardage. In my mind it was running about $9-10 a ball. This might be one of those cases where you buy it on sale or buy it someplace like webs where they will give a discount. You might also ask your yarn source if there is a discount if you buy full bags of it.

I *love* that Odyssey yarn too! I think it would make a stunning Buttrfly! I have some of color #410 in my stash to make this:

I fell in love with the sweater but Butterfly sounds like a perfect match too!

I’ve been away from my regular reads for awhile, so I’ve missed some stuff, but your short rows look fascinating. I’m going to continue reading….. Just wanted to say “hi”!

It’s very pretty! I wanted to knit that swaeter, but everyone’s ended up too large. That’s a lot of knitting to not fit me. It’s very unique though.

Oh — just saw your sidebar — congratulations on the 12 lb. loss!
