A 4 year anniversary and 2 dozen roses later I think my knitting has inspired some colour. I love the bright red and I love that one of my current projects happens to be that exact red- the exact red the beautiful roses happens to be.
I am working on the Audrey Coat from Blue Sky Alpaca. I am using about 30 skeins of number 511- the brightest red that comes in the Alpaca sport weight. I have been waiting months to make this coat and it was well worth the wait. Although it is a super simple pattern knit in 6 pieces, 2 strands held together, all in stockinette stitch with increases and decreases I find it a nice break between the more complex patterns I am currently working on. I like the variety and I love the bright red!
