They are really lovely Smile

There was some discussio a while back in the Townsend group about this wool and the fact that it comes out stripey and not like the picture. I believe all Opal said is that it's a variable pattern and it depends on the number of stitches, tension etc etc. You can read a little about it here, Colin was quite upset by it! A word of warning, if you delve further into his blog please expect some controversial posts, he deals with many subjects, it isn't just limited to knitting Wink
