I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders once the Christmas knitting was done.  I’m kicking myself for not photographing a couple of pieces before they were wrapped and mailed away.  I knit two Porom hats since this pattern has passed the hat-stays-on-my-head test.  I used the same yarn but different colors.  The finished hats turned out great and the recipients are going to love them, I’m sure.  They were so quick on and off the needles that I didn’t even document them on Ravelry and I’m usually good about stuff like that!

Once the overload of accessories were off my needles, I just wanted to cast on for a larger project.  You know me and my sweater knitting bug!  I’ve had my eye on Metro for a while and thought that this pattern would be a perfect match for my Madelinetosh Sweater Club yarn

This yarn is such a joy to knit with because the base is just gorgeous – merino, cashmere, nylon…mmm, mmm, mmm.

I just hope I don’t run out of yarn!
