This yarn is definitely one of my favourites. I have knit countless items with it and it’s great because it’s both baby- and adult-friendly. They colour goes with everything – it’s the natural colour of wool. This time I made a pair of baby booties for a newborn cutie of friends’ of ours. Well he was a newborn 2 months ago but who’s counting 😀 I made them a little bit bigger than the tiny newborn ones so he can wear them longer.
Here’s more about the yarn:
Lion Brand Fishermen’s Wool in Soft Cream
Oh, great choice! I just adore that wool for projects large and small. It is easy to find and just a couple skeins makes a sweater! I designed a traditional Irish fisherman’s sweater for my boyfriend a few years back and used the oatmeal color. Those booties are adorable!
Thank you 🙂
Yes, I love this yarn for pretty much everything – from sweaters to socks. It’s so warm but soft and pleasant to wear. I bet the sweater your made was gorgeous. What a great idea! I love the oatmeal colour.
I love Fishermen’s wool!
Me too. I don’t remember how much I’ve bought from it. Such a classic!
Awwww so pretty.
Thank you 🙂
