I couldn't keep my hands off that Manos and I just had to start Summer Flies. These colors are beautiful and I never want to put it down. Unfortunately, I'm off by a stitch and may need to do some tinking.
I had looked for a third colorway when I bought this yarn but there wasn't one available. Hopefully it will turn out okay just using two colorways. I wish I could show you the shop samples at Cast-on Cottage. The three colors in each shawl go together so well!
Here is my original Summer Flies with Koigu. I liked the colors together in the skein but not together when knitted. And I think it would look better in this shawl to not have the solid yarn with the multi. But the Koigu won't go to waste!
Beth, it looks beautiful. Can't wait to see it on you. We need to get together soon.
