A Lot of Black
Well I thought I should give you a little taste of what's on my needles. My main project right now is Puffin from Kate Davies book Colours of Shetland. You didn't think there was only one project on my needles, did you?!
I will confess that there is a lot of black stocking stitch in this project. Here we have one completed sleeve and the body almost done to the point of adding the sleeve:

98 rounds of black stockinette.
98 rounds of black stockinette,
98 rounds of black.

And, if you were wondering, yes both the book and yarn kit for this sweater are available from Sheeps Ahoy.
