Final Stretch

If you've read much of my blog at all you know that I'm an avid fan of knit designer Cecily Glowik MacDonald. A few weeks ago she added a project to Ravelry called 'My Big Cowled Friend' and I began to pattern stalk. Last week sometime she added the pattern to Ravelry and I bought the pattern, picked out some yarn, and cast on. The pattern is Hollyhock and I am in loooove. It's a top-down sweater that starts with an enormous cowl. My Imperial Stock Ranch Columbia 2-ply is ultra squishy and sheepy and is a pleasure to knit with for the last long stretch of stockinette body. I'm hoping to finish this weekend with photos shortly thereafter.
