I have a skein of Mongolian Cashmere in my stash that I've been waiting for something special to use it for. I think we have a winner. I knew when I saw the Frostbite Scarf, I had to make it.

Thank you so much :) I had so much fun designing this pattern, and I hope people love the end result as they work it up. Each day I keep learning about new yarn places... and yours is one of them.. I must now go take a peak! I am so honored to have you mention my Dragonfly Shawl!!

I like the cover too but I was feeling like I was listing everything :) The 10 ply Naturelle Aran knits at 5 sts on a #6-#8. We've got several options, but here are the ones I think are best: Berroco - Inca Gold or Ultra Alpaca Cascade 220 Classic Elite Inca Alpaca Elsabeth Lavold Bambool Misti Alpaca Suri Silk Valley Yarns - Stockbridge, Northampton, Hadley I tried to keep price in mind. If you think one or two of these might work, let me know. I think it will be very important to swatch first on this project. Sorry Lisa!

I'm looking for a substitute yarn (hint, hint) because the yarn used is too scratchy and warm for California. Happy New Year! You left off my favorite, the cover sweater with the bow!
