Little cabled vests are so appealing, and I loved the Pembroke pattern that came out this summer. The yarn specified in the pattern seemed ideal down to the colorway, so I’ve been vaguely trying to track down a skein for the last few months. Finally found one (and even on sale!) and it arrived in the mail yesterday! Such fun. I cast on in the evening, then thanks to an unusually constant-nursing, no-sleep night managed to make it through fifteen rows of the chart last night.
The yarn is slightly more pastel than I anticipated, but so springy and lovely to work with. I briefly entertained hopes of trying to finish this for our family gathering at Thanksgiving, but I suspect that’s overly ambitious.
The yarn is lovely!
