    Journey Mitts in Illimani

    This yarn is just lovely and a real pleasure with which to knit (& the Pistachio color is really pretty).
    I may have lost a bit of the pattern’s cable texture with the tweed, but I think that’s offset by the luxurious feel of the yarn.

    This yarn is so soft. I used double strands on size 17 needles & my sweater is delicious.
    Definitely would recommend.
