I was given a hank of this yarn, Alpaca for Christmas, by dancin' fool.
The colours and feel of it are lovely.
The yarn can be found at http://www.artesano.co.uk/ and is called Hummingbird.
My thoughts were what I would make that would retain the lovely colour ways,
as knitting did not do justice to the yarn.
A book by Kristin Omdahl, ( pictured above), called Seamless Crochet,which is a method of making crochet motifs in a continous length and joining them together as you work, was the answer. It retained the wonderful colour ways in blocks.The seperate small work is a fastener for the scarf.
Thank you dancin' and Kristin.
I am now on my sixth project using this book for inspiration.
