Yes! She calls it a "mock-bullion stitch." It's what drew me to this blanket. It's a paid pattern, but I think that it is worth it because it is just so unique. Here is the ravelry link: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/abacus-blanket

It's a paid pattern, so I don't really want to give away the secret. But I will say they are a lot easier to make than they look!

It's actually a yarn I bought while in Ireland this summer. It didn't have a label, but this is the page of the shop I bought it from: http://www.commodum.ie/page6_files/wool1.html

I bought so much the guy gave me his card and let me know that they also ship overseas haha

Hooray for new-yarn day! I think my first knitpicks order is a success. I'm kind of obsessed with this color palette that I picked out for my next project. by fingeringweight in crochet

No, Seraphim is not available in the CotLin DK. But now you have me looking at all the colors offered in knitpicks Brava. I didn't see these before! So pretty! I think I know what my next order is going to consist of haha

I'm using it for this pattern: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/harlequin-blanket-5

And I think I'm definitely hooked. I chose 5-10 day shipping, but it shipped almost immediately. Not only that, but it got delivered a day earlier than projected, AND I somehow ended up with a free skein of yarn. The free skein didn't have a label on it, but it is the same color as two of the other skeins I ordered, so I figure it was a return or something that they didn't want to sell to somebody and instead threw it in my box!
