The Summer Tweed arrived today ever-so-speedily from the UK, but the color was way brighter and more orangey than I'd envisioned, so I'm going to return it for a refund :-( (Jannette has a great return policy). The good news is that shortens my yarn diet list. The bad news is that it leaves me shrugless. C'est la vie...

Sweater (maybe Phildar?) OR 2 tanks - ~7 skeins Rowan Summer Tweed
Sweater (maybe my own pattern?) - 1 lb. Navy School Products Cashmere
Lelah - recycled sparkly yarn
Minisweater 2 - ~3.5 balls Cash Iroha, leftover from h-glass
I just wanted to ask you - on that shrug - it was knit exactly as the pattern - only using 1 strand instead of 3? I have some mystery yarn I got on ebay that might work - thanks for the info.

if you try this, please let me know!
