Petersburg
Pattern: Petersburg from Rowan 42
Yarn: Rowan Cocoon, shade Scree
Yardage: 5.74 skeins for size M
Needles: 7mm & 6mm bamboo straights, & 6mm circ for front borders
I decided to finish off Petersburg this past week, as I'd started it back in January when the weather was truly cold! Given the damp day we're having today, it was nice and snug to try on. I'm pleased with how this turned out, the Cocoon is a lovely yarn, very soft and squishy. It does tend to shed some fibres (mohair content) though.

Love it - let's just hope you don't get too much wear out of it this summer!
That's gorgeous! That will be a lovely spring and fall sweater.
It is absolutely gorgeous! I especially like the colour.
In the Rowan magazine I didn't really take much interest in this jacket, but it looks really good in your photo. Much better colour choice than in the magazine.
Beautiful knit, it looks lovely and snuggly. Gorgeous colour too.
I've got some cocoon to make a cardigan with - I'll watch out for the mohair...
That is lovely, I am off to look at the pattern! The cocoon must be nice to wear.
gorgoeus and a lovely colour
Beautiful knitting. That looks like the perfect garment for the transitions between seasons.
That looks gorgeous.
