Cairn, Crag, Tarn, Tundra….I absolutely love the shades of Rowan’s new Cocoon collection.

The yarn reminds me of what I already have on the needles, so I think I’ll finish that project first. There’s also the question of knitting two sweaters in a row with yarns so similar in fiber content. But the Cocoon is chunky and I haven’t knit with 6 mm needles in ages.

Waiting in its not so rustic habitat…
I was thinking of knitting Narvik in one color – I love this photo (slightly different than the one in the magazine), the cables, the stitch pattern on the sleeves. But if I take away the model with braids wrapped around her head and the beautiful landscape behind her, do I still want to knit it? There’s something about the styling in the photo that makes me forget it’s cropped, something that makes it look almost wrap-like. I may just go with the more tailored Oslo. Ah, decisions. I love thinking about what to knit next.
