Stash enhancement

I was quite excited last night when I come home to a box of yarn that I had ordered from Axelle. I've got the Highland Heather in merino wool...

and I've already swatched...

Now I just have to figure out what to make with it.

Hi, Thanks for your comment on my blog.

I love the yarn you've pictured in this entry. It's gorgeous.

Happy knitting.

Ooh! It looks even more fabulous knitted up I think. I can't wait until my order turns up.

I think I am going to use my Axelle purchase to adapt the Clapotis pattern from knitty. I don't think it should be too difficult to get a scarf of broadly the right proportions by adjusting the number of stitches slightly. Of course, I sound this confident before I've looked closely at the pattern and actually done the maths so who knows whether it's really going to work :)

I love the idea of using Axelle for Clapotis... Now: which colourway? and how much yarn do I need...

I love the idea of using Axelle's yarn for Clapotis. I just received my order of Briar Rose, I think that should work.
