Well hello Mission Possible Blanket.

I am loving this stashbusting project so much! It is fast, easy, portable (depending on size) and a nice diversion while waiting for each Friday release of the PP MKAL clues.

As I knew, I’d run out of the Mission Falls 1824. What I had on hand were several colours left over from the Interweave “Burma Rings” sweater. About .75 of each skein, too much to get rid of, not quite enough for a project using all of them. What I didn’t know until I update my project page, was that Mission Falls is out of business.  This is a shame on a couple different levels. MF was a well-loved company and their 1824 wool and cotton lines were a favourite with knitters. Not so terrible for a stashbuster project but I did want to keep any other yarns that I used as close as possible to the MF 1824 wool.

Voila! At the Thursday “Sit ‘N Knit” at my LYS, what caught my eye but some Luxury Collection “Fine Merino Superwash Aran“. It is a dead ringer for the MF and if I didn’t mention that it isn’t – no one would ever know. I love when a little stashbust includes just a smidge of stash enhance and this one couldn’t be better.

So here’s how it’s looking so far:

Halfway through another week. Unreal how the time flies by. Hope you’ve had some dedicated crafting time this week. Cheers!
