Ring around the Rosy
A pocket full of Posies….
I used to love to play this game with my children when they were young…heck I even loved it when I was young…and….. that was a very long time ago…LOL.
A little while back I received an order from a fairly well known pattern designer for a sweaters worth of our WW Kashmir yarn. Even though I had no idea what Cecily was going to do with this yarn, I was very excited at the possibilities, as I love so many of her sweater designs. They are very classic in style and so very wearable. I currently have a number of them in my ravelry queque of knits that I hope to knit in my lifetime. 🙂
I was beyond delighted when Cecily Glowick MacDonald released her newest e-book, called Rosy Days. This little e-book has 3 sweater designs with yarns created by independent dyers such as myself. All three are so pretty, but I have to admit, I love this one, Bella Roma, the best. I love the classic lines of the sweater and the sweet lace inset on the sleeves.
I am always so humbled and amazed when a designer chooses to use my yarns in their designs….thank you Cecily!
If you get a chance go take a peak at Cecily's work…..her patterns are lovely!!

What’s not to love? A beautiful design recommendation, not to mention, gorgeous yarn choice.
I’ve used your yarn for socks, and this cardigan is begging to be knit with more of your squishy loveliness. I can hardly wait!
