20-something little clouds

It’s a finished project!

Isn’t THAT fancy?!

Project Details:

  • Pattern: 22 Little Clouds, by Martina Behm.
  • Yarn: Black Wolf Ranch Spirit Alpaca/silk blend. This is a DK weight, I used 3 skeins, or 750 yards. The ranch is located in St. Ignatius, Montana, they are on facebook, but don’t have a retail outlet online. I bought this four years ago at a local fiber festival.
  • Started: September 15, 2023
  • Finished: November 19, 2023
  • For: Me
  • Needle: 3.75 mm
  • Yarn/Pattern rating: *****/***** This is a free pattern, but it is clearly written, very easy to make. The yarn is stunning, I wish I had a whole bathtub full of this.

I started this in the summer as a “mistake rib” scarf, and quickly became completely bored with knitting 2 by 2 rib, and ripped it out. I am perfectly happy knitting garter and stockinette stitch for miles, but ribbing and seed stitch make me crazy. I wanted a pattern that just showed off the yarn, and that was adaptable to a larger yardage. An added bonus is that it has a RUFFLE!

And there you have it!

  1. Love this! I bought some of their yarn as well (I think it was the last year Madrona was held.?)
    This scarf is yummy.

  2. Ribbing is torture. This very nice. I too can do garter for mikes since I rarely have to look at it while knitting.
