Oh My! I really love this Advent Sorrel even more now it’s finished 😍
She is warm and soft and perfect for an English mid-summer (which is very cold this year).

It took 3 different skeins of green to finish the sleeves (Which look a little long in this picture??). I managed to bend all three shades of green into the ribbing to try and keep it looking cohesive.

I don’t think there is much else to say about this one, except that I have “This much” left from my 24 skein advent calendar and 2.6 skeins of the 5 skeins of the mohair.

It was hard not to just cast on another Sorrel straight away!! Maybe greens -> purples-> pink??? Hmmmmm….🤔
A couple more pictures to show her off and a completed knit report….then onto my next exciting project 😀

Your advent fade really turned out well. I pink and purple one would be beautiful too. I can’t imagine wearing a sweater in summer over here in the states. It’s 32C outside!!
It’s an unusually cold and wet summer here in England. 17C today! Sorrel was very welcome 🙂
