I am working on Knit and Tonic's Dream Swatch Head Wrap. The pattern calls for a 100 percent bamboo yarn but I'm using a soy/bamboo blend called Sojabama (which I suspect means soy bamboo in Swiss though weirdly enough the yarn is made in France) by Schulana which I got over at Knit Knack. I had a little trouble with switching the elongated stitches but I seem to have the hang of it now. As usual, I tried to go too fast. :) Bamboo soy yarn is very slippery I'm finding but oh so soft! I can't wait to wear it!

Your Dream Swatch looks beautiful! I haven't started mine yet, but seeing yours and Nachaele's makes me want to start right away! :)
I love it!! Wow, I am going to work on mine at lunch today and tonight!!
I love the solid color of yours!
Great job!
I've been working on a baby blanket in that exact same stitch. Only the balanket is a bit... wider. :-) Beautiful color -though watch out around Leanne. She may distract you and make off with it (being a Purple Princess and alll).
Just kidding, Leanne!
OK. So printing that pattern now. Adding to the HUGE binder of patterns to be done!
That is looking just gorgeous!
I am laughing here, and must add my twopence...
Sojabama means absolutely NOTHING in swiss. BTW we speak french, or italian, or schwitzertuutsch (swiss-german) in Swizerland. I think they just thought it was a cool name for a yarn.
Which I don't think so. But the yarn is very soft and beautiful, isn't it?
nice blog.
