Sev[en] Circle

Let me tell you seven things about my Sev[en] Circle neckpiece:

1.  This pattern is all sorts of awesome!

2.  The seven circles, of varying sizes, are knitted in the round and remain connected through a series of stitches which are worn at the base of your neck.

3.  I started this project at class taught by the designer Kirsten Johnstone at Sunspun Fine Yarns (my local wool shop) and I will admit to being a little star struck at the beginning as I’d been a long time admirer of Kirsten’s knitting and sewing!

4.  This project was a great confidence builder for this novice knitter and it also re-ignited my love of knitting.

5.  There was lots of casting on and casting off, but it was good practice and oh so worth it.

6.   I purchased two balls of Sublime’s Baby Cashmere Merino Silk DK in colourway 337 Elkin for this project.  The yarn was divine to knit, feels soft against the skin and I adore the colouway.  As long time readers will know, colour is ALWAYS important!

7.  The Sev[en] Circles neckpiece is surprisingly warm and I suspect it won’t be the last time I knit this pattern.
