Folly Cove Frolic……

Pattern:  Folly Cove
Yarn:  Woolen Rabbit Frolic
Colorway:  Red Hot Chili Peppers
Needles:  US 6 and US 7

Do you not love this sweater design?  The pattern was written by Julia Farwell Clay and I thoroughly enjoyed knitting it…each and every stitch.  There is something so soothing knitting stockinette.  The mindless back and forth or round in round in this case at the end of a busy day quickly quiets the soul.

Even though simple in design, the little touches of lace on the back …..

….a little more on the front neck…..

…..and a little touch on the sleeve, all went towards making this a comfortable yet fasionable sweater.

I have actually had this sweater finished for a few months and had hoped to wear it in these photos, but I made it a touch smaller than I normally would wear, anticipating more weight loss.  Not being able to work out or walk most of the winter slowed the weight loss process down, but I have been given the OK from the doctor to start power-walking again, so you will definitely see me in Folly Cove this fall!

Thanks Julia for a lovely design!!

  2. It’s lovely! I’m still working to put ONE sleeve in the Frolic for my sister, and I have the yarn for one for myself. We both love the Pussywillow colorway, and the Grace knit up beautifully!

  3. So pretty Kim! You’ll get there, stitch by stitch. Funny how knitting is like life. Wish weight loss were as fun as knitting, don’t you?
