Jo Sharp Shoulder Warmer

I am proud to finally show you my completed Shoulder Warmer! There was a long delay last year due to my injured hand but I am glad I finally manage to complete it ... The pattern is actually quite easy and straightforward using Rib stitch, suitable for a beginner like me.

The shoulder warmer was done using Jo Sharp "Rare Comfort Kid Mohair" yarn in Colour 610 Millet (about 3 balls of 25g in total).

Make a shoulder warmer

This piece of knit is what I am working on at the moment. To make a shoulder warmer like the one in the "Contemporary Knitting" No. 34 magazine by Jo Sharp. The pattern seems easy enough for a beginner like me and is light enough for our weather here.

The lovely Kid Mohair wool was purchased from Jo Sharp, through my brother and sis-in-law who visited New Zealand last year. This is the problem with knitting here in Singapore - finding the right wool/yarn and its cost. Stockists are limited and I would really like the idea of stocking wool up for knitters here and for myself some day ...
