Tweed

For some reason, I have had this thing about knitting with tweed lately. Maybe the English/Irish part of my heritage is drawn to the comforting, classic look of sturdy, working-class yarn flecked with color. For Alexander's birthday, I knit a sweater vest in two colors of Debbie Bliss Donegal Aran Tweed. With what was leftover, I made his mother some mitts, and later with another tweed, Lamb's Pride Serendipty Tweed, I made another pair of mitts for Chris and socks for me. Some yarn remains, allowing me to get this tweed fixation out of my system...
