Carmen Perez Aguado	2/28 NM Diamante jewel Monday 20 May 2013 5:30:41 pm II needed a shawl of this colour to combine with a dress with floral frint in green (must be crazy when I bought it becaude I almost never use pattere) and Sue/Richard helped me sending different samples until I gave with the exact color. I knit this shawl with one ply and 3.5 mm needles. Nice to knit and block. I used 55 grams of yarn and it is 240 cms wide and 110 cms higth. Yo can see more pictures in http://ravel.me/maica/ob
Diane Helland	2/62NM cashmere/linen cobweb weight doubled Sunday 19 May 2013 11:52:54 pm Finished this last week and I am thrilled with it. Originally white, overdyed by me for this project. The cashmere is so soft and the drape provided by the linen is exquisite. Project page: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/FoxfireTX/pretty-as-a-peacock-shawl
Roberta Anderson	2/18NM heavy lace weight, 100% cotton slub, tart Sunday 19 May 2013 4:07:53 pm Just finished this Aprè Surf Hoodie, using yarn held double (which makes a light fingering) and 3.5mm. It used less than 2 cones and the resulting fabric is really lovely, soft and light. Lovely colour, cheery sunny orange!

Cherise Elliott	My first ColourMart project! Sunday 24 February 2013 10:29:34 pm Here is my first project made from ColourMart yarn. The yarn didn't bloom as much as I'd anticipated, but I should have swatched first, then I would have known to knit on needles a size smaller. The finished piece is pretty, though. I added light pink beads to give the beige yarn and simple pattern a little pop. The Ravelry link is: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/CheriseRoselle/crown-jewel
