Springtime in Hollis Pattern

I am so excited to be a licensed knitter of Comfort Wool Co. "Springtime in Hollis" pattern! I am absolutely in love with the pattern and cannot wait to cast on a couple different ones and try out all the different options provided in the pattern. I have a couple different colorways in mind, I just need to decide which to use first (decisions, decision!). Here are the three that I am considering...hopefully WIP pictures very soon!

Who Doesn't Love a Lamb?

As I scrolled through the blogs that I frequent, I learned that this adorable knitted lamb pattern from Susan B. Anderson's Itty-Bitty Toys book is available on the Petite Purls website. I just love love love it! Since the Columbus City limits will not allow me my own live flock, perhaps I could knit up an entire herd of these sheep. I believe a trip to a LYS to find the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Astrakhan yarn to for the sheep's knobby wool is in order...
