Linen drape is the new summer yarn from Stylecraft which blends cool linen with viscose to make a yarn that drapes beautifully and makes the perfect summer evening layer.  Pattern support is good in the shape of 8 ladies' patterns, both for outer layers and summer tops.
I've started knitting myself a 3/4 sleeve cardigan for the summer evenings when it's a bit cooler (and  let's face it, many of the days too!) and I am loving this yarn!  I've chosen the Cranberry colourway which is  a deep red, but still has a brightness to it (if a deep dark red is more your thing, check out the Sangria colour, which is very much like a good wine!).  It's great to work with, has a lovely weight to it (coming from the linen is my guess) but still feels light and cool in the knitted fabric (due to the viscose).  I can already see I'm going to love this cardigan when it's made!

Crafting is not my strong suit, but I try it out anyway. There are lots of people who have no idea how hard it is, though. I understand that there are people who just do not care about it, but that does not make it weird. I believe that those who are talented at crafting are insanely great people. I am here because I want to learn more about it. I hope that I can learn all of the tricks to it.
