The rules are easy!
Choose your New Lanark aran or double knitting yarn and knit anything you like in it! Heathered double knitting, wool-silk Donegal mixtures, the choice is yours!
Post your musings of your choice of colour, choice of pattern and your progress here

They're lovely patterns.
I'm still dithering big time 
Like the sound of the silk mix but am drawn to a paler blue which isnt done in the silk one.
Will look at my patterns again tonight (if I dont fall asleep  )

Well I bit the bullet yesterday and bought the Donegal Silk-mix in Cobalt blue but I was tempted by Aviemore as well so I just plumped for one of them in the end plus a shade card for any future purchases .
I want to knit myself a buttoned hoodie and have the one from the Jaeger Trinity book in mind as it's a bit more fitted. I'll try to find a piccie.

Ooh would like to see a pic of that pattern Debs - I have a Trinity book but can't think of the one you mean.

BUT!!! Some of the colours on the shade cards are now in a different type on the site - eg some of the Heathers I think it is have become Silk Donegal colours instead

It's this one Ali, I think it's called Santana in the book:
It's one of those patterns that I've been 'collecting' yarn for and always think 'Oooh I could knit that hoodie in {insert yarn name here} yarn'
