The Loop Cafe: Knitting in Canadia II



Today I went to visit the Loop Cafe on Barrington Street in Halifax, Nova Scotia on my annual trip to Canada.
Neil (the bf) saw a hat that he loved, so I bought one skein of Cascade 220 in a red/green blend that looks brown from far away, and two skeins of Warani alpaca/merino blend in a cream color.

The pattern is a test one, so I get to be the guinea pig and try it out for Mimi, the woman at Loop who wrote the pattern.

Mimi: I'm going for it already!
