My obsession with Orange started out as a crush really. So how fitting would it be to name the newest addition to my wardrobe Orange Crush? I really liked this merino wool from Knit Picks. It was soft while knitting and when washed it really softened more. One thing I noticed was that my sweater grew slightly when washed. Nothing to be alarmed about, but something to note. Guess I really should wash those swatches.
I think Yoda liked it, too. Excuse the hair. We had just gotten back from a walk. As you can imagine Yoda walks are not typical. She always does something different. Whether it is run around me in circles or run ahead and stop, then run ahead when I get close, Yoda keeps it interesting.

Good to know about the KP merino…I’ve been wondering about it!
That looks great! What pattern did you use? I’ve been thinking about knitting a turtleneck too.
The sweater looks great and you two are such a cute pair!
The sweather looks perfect! Orange looks great on you.
