As promised, here’s my newest design, the Beanstalk Poncho. I wore it on the last day of the yarn crawl, and loved it. It’s knit with two 400 yard skeins of fingering weight yarn, a perfect lightweight accessory for spring and summer.
A single beanstalk climbs from hem to shoulder, reaching for the sky on both front and back. I used two Three Fates Yarns’ five shade gradient sets in her Eponymous Sock; the colorway is Time Lapse gradient. It would be equally lovely in a semi-solid colorway.
The length and width of this wrap are easy to customize to your perfect size. The wrap shown is 18″ wide by 29″ long.

Oh this one is delicious and truly fits it’s name. Plus Jack and…was always a favorite story of mine.
Thanks, Kathryn! I love this, and loved wearing it on Saturday. Bonus: Now that the pattern pictures have been taken, I can wear it all I want and not worry about spilling stuff on it before the photo shoot!

Jack and the Beanstalk, yearning for something higher and better. It kind of reminds me of this piece about Somewhere Over the Rainbow: http://www.pbs.org/video/2365578151/ Cool fun music theory.
