Merlin's Bearded Trevi

Last week, at the height of the Big Snow Dump, I started Trevi, by Knitspot. I fell in love with this little shawl as soon as Anne had it up for sale on her website. The geometric look of Trevi was a nice change from the more traditional lace patterns.

I'm following along in the Shalimar Yarns Winter KAL on Ravelry. We're doing any Knitspot pattern, so the fields wide open!



I'm loving the SSK's which give it a wonderful textured look, and I'm making the mini size, which is a sure bet with the yardage on Zoe Sock. The colorway, Merlin's Beard, was new this past fall. It is soft and even tempered in it's hue and will go with anything in my closet that is black, brown, gray or cream. Beautiful pattern!

It's beginning to feeling a lot like...

It definitely snuck up on us this year; fall is here and we have the low morning temperatures to prove it. Somehow, I've been too busy to really enjoy our very short Indian Summer, but we did have one. And now the trees are beginning to turn and I'm thinking that it's time to start winterizing the barn, before it turns bitter cold and it becomes a chore.

But with fall comes new fall colors! Here is one of three that we recently released. It's Merlin's Beard, a neutral composition of grays, browns and cream. This palette never seems to go out of style.




Happy Knitting!
