Jody, just this week a Ravelry pm’d me asking if I’d sell/trade my Zauberball #2082 [reds>purples] because she ran out knitting her – – Wingspan.
Put it in USPS on Monday and she had it Wednesday.
This is getting spookie.
Love your blog, btw
hugs

Good to know about the yarn because I have a ball and was thinking about a shawl, but sounds like I just need to make socks with it.

I love the way it falls, and the color changes look great with the pattern. I’ve used this yarn too, and I understand what you’re talking about with it.

I think it’s funny you say you hate the yarn you used, because I also do not like the yarn I used, but LOVE the pattern and how it’s looking. This project has a way of making crappy yarn look good. Sorry about the gauge issues, but I know it will still be a dream to wear!

Sorry about the yarn. Sometimes you find that perfect looking ball, and then once you start knitting you realize how much it does not fit!

Great color choices and nice save with the substitute yarn at the end….can’t tell at all
