So far, so good! I love this yarn- garment will have wonderful drape. Cardi will be knit in Knitpicks Shine (Marmalade colourway) -a blend of pima cotton and Modal, which is a cousin to Rayon and is a bargain project...about $50 for the entire thing. I love Knitpicks!! As the patterned area grows with each completion of the repeat it really looks beautiful. I finally have the pattern memorized and it is humming right along. This is a new stitch- a twisted/slanted stitch that give great texture and interest.
