Newest Triloom Project


I love the texture of recycled yarn!  This came from a man's XL 100% wool sweater, which gave me over 1,200 yards of yarn!  



Here is the pattern.  The black yarn is some extra Lambs Pride Worsted 100% wool, about the same width as the recycled wool.  This yarn likes to stick together a lot so I use a 15" dowel rod to separate the yarn on each pass, before I drag the yarn over to the other side.  It works well.
