Notes from my queue to start this off…
Colorwork sweater with graphic diamonds hanging down from the neckline. It needs 1275yd MC/465 CC. I could possibly use a solid DK for the start and do it cropped with short sleeve so no cuffs. Knit Circus Divine DK 3 skeins (780yd) in Purple Palace with blue suede (384yds) superwash handspun?
