I have been contemplating more New Lanark yarn today - in aran weight to knit a jacket. I haven't even cast on the DK stuff yet Laughing

I rather fancy the dark graphite silk-wool mixture in the aran weight and the oatmeal mixture in the DK weight for the Must Have cardigan. I might just have to buy some this week Wink

I did actually - I got 20st on 4.5mm I think but I'd seen a camel one in the same shade of Jaeger MM on Rav that I liked PLUS I wanted it slightly bigger so went with the Jaeger at 19st in the 36" - I don't want it really fitted just comfy.
