I broke my stashbusting trend a bit. I had to swing over to the Yarn Barn, my LYS, and get more Soak. And I browsed while I was there….
I have been watching other knitters post about Neon by Joji Locatelli. So I bought the pattern online and picked the lovely yarn above…
It’s 12 hanks of Berroco Pure Pima cotton in green. It’s a new yarn from Berroco. (I think I’m quickly becoming a Berroco kind of girl) It’s very spring like to me and just called my name. It’s a very soft cotton and I can’t wait to try it!
I have so many other WIPs it will have to wait a bit. For now I’m just going to mark up the directions for my size and read the pattern through a few times. It’s by far one of the most complicated sweaters I will attempt. It uses the contiguous construction method, which looks amazing.
For now it sits in cakes on my craft desk and I fondle it every time I walk by, lol! The hubs and I are off to a BBQ for lunch with friends and some relaxation!!
I hope you have an awesome Sunday!!
P.S. I did remember to buy Soak as well. That justifies my trip right?

It’s a lovely color, and yes it does justify your trip!

It would have been almost criminal not to buy that yarn, it’s gorgeous! Well done for remembering the Soak, not sure I would have done if I’d been distracted by the yarn… 🙂
Awesome color!!! can’t wait for pictures of the sweater!! Good Luck!!
I love Joji patterns, and that yarn is *perfect* for Neon!
