Interlocking Balloons



Here is the Father's Day Gift to my husband.

Yarn:
Araucania Nature Wool (100% wool, 100g, color: #11) 2 skeins
habu silk mohair (A-32-9) in chacoal gray, 1.5oz

Pattern:
Interlocking Balloons from scarf style

Close up photo is here:


I used silk mohair to make it a bit more fluffy. It looks a bit heavier than the one in the book, but I wanted to try this araucania yarn to see how this subtle variation in color was going to come out. I was happy when my hubby said "I can't wait to wear this!!"
