Yarn

Yesterday I got a box from Knit Picks! I bought 2 skeins of Gloss lace (in peapod) and 11 skeins of Swish worsted (lemongrass).

What will they become?  The Whisper cardigan and Retrograde pullover, repectively.  I'll probably start the Retrograde first. The Swish is not quite bulky enough for the gauge, but lots of people on Ravelry used it, so I will make it work somehow.  I want to finish it for an Annual Gift Day present for my man.

As for the Whisper, I really wanted to do it in blue, but there wasn't a blue I liked in the Gloss, and I couldn't resist this yarn, it's so pretty, got good reviews, and it makes my project cost less than $10.  So green it is.

Let me know what you think of the Gloss Lace. After being so disappointed with the Palette yarn I've been more careful about trying new yarns from Knit Picks.

I've used the Swish worsted for a couple of projects and it seems to be a really decent yarn.
