I used KnitPicks <a href=\"http:\/\/knitpicks.com\/yarns\/yarn_Display.aspx?itemid=5420104\">Merino Style<\/a> yarn. I think I ordered about 12 skeins? Actually, I think I ended up using 10, because I found 2 unused skeins at the bottom of my knitting box. I used my knitting software to design the sweater, and the fair isle pattern is from <a href=\"http:\/\/lusciousgracious.com\/blog\/2005\/08\/for-love-of-color.html\">Kiki<\/a>. I highly recommend this fair isle pattern for any novice wanting to learn about fair isle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I bet you all thought I moved to Portland and stopped knitting\/sewing\/crafting, didn&#8217;t you?
