Cashsilk Light Magic

Goodness! FedEx dropped two glorious boxes off Friday afternoon, and we tore into them immediately since we knew they contained an order we've been waiting on: fifteen glorious colors of a light, fingering weight blend of merino, silk and cashmere! From Laine du Nord, Cashsilk Light is fantastic for those of you with allergies to mohair but who still want that soft, pillowy halo associated with it. 

Meg absconded with six cakes immediately: three made it into Mama Jo's hands, swatching commenced, a little math got notated, and twenty-four hours later, we had a cowl! This one is super easy: choose three colors of Cashsilk Light and then hold two different strands together to create a truly one-of-a-kind ombre effect that's achieved by simply eliminating one of the strands and replacing it with another color as you work the pattern.
