Okay I can't resist posting this really cute picture of my niece wearing the Forest Path Stole.
I started last night. It's Guernsey Frock by Kim Hargreaves from "A Treasury of Rowan Knits."
I just picked it up on remainder. It's a book worth having, especially if you live in the south. Almost all of the patterns are knit with cotton or cotton blend yarns like Rowan Denim, Wool Cotton, or Cotton Glace. There are a lot of drop shoulders, but I am no longer convinced that drop shoulders in themselves are evil. I think it's the combination of drop shoulders and eight to ten inches of ease that's the real nightmare. Anyway check it out.
I think there is some cold barbecue I should be eating right now. I'll be back when the leftovers run out.

It's stunning! The color is beautiful too. I have the pattern, but never really saw one before that I liked until I saw yours.
Beautiful work - I totally agree with Fleegle - Your Forest Path stole is a standout!! Happy Knitting!
Congratulations! Too bad I didn't catch your FO on the 1st update ... but it'll be shown on the 15th. Have Debi sent you invitation to the Flickr group? If not, please give me your email address and one would be sent your way. Your stole would add colour to the photo pool! It's simply lovely!
