Anyone interested a trade for an unopened pack of Rowan linen drape in the color Watermelon? After picking this up I realized I already have like 10 things in my spring/summer wardrobe in exactly this color. Doh! Rowan #31 and Rowan #29 both have lots of great patterns for this yarn. And I'll be using the same yarn in a different color to make this Vintage Knits top. You could knit-along with me!

I'd be happy to trade for a tank's or short sleeved sweater's worth of Rowan calmer, all seasons cotton, or handknit dk. Or anything else fabuloso that you suggest. Email me at the address in the left sidebar!

Update: Trade's all set. Got an offer I couldn't refuse. Thanks to everyone for the various offers I received. I hope I get to trade with some of you in the future!

Hi, Alison...I'm not a taker for your offering (though it is pretty!), but am checking in re: the SpringFling. My Pop-on Top back is finished, and I'm headed towards the neckline on the front (having just cast off for the armholes)...

Hi, Allison,
I'm interested in trading for the Linen Drape but haven't been able to get your email address to work. could you email me with the correct address? (maybe I just can't spell, always a possibility...) thanks!

I LOVE this yarn of yours. Hmmmmm....I'm trying to think what I have to trade. Unfortunately, my stash is low on Rowan at the moment.

Thanks for your kind words about the summer dress! I had fun making it, just not sure I want to do another one right away. Oh well, I have to keep telling myself how cute they will look wearing them together.

Ohhh... we should have a Drape-along! I have some in purple that's been taunting me from my stash since last fall...
