The Trilce pattern is now (finally!) finished, knit, and up for sale on Ravelry and on the Patterns page. Thanks for your patience. I hope you enjoy it!

The first time I knit Trilce, I used Manos del Uruguay and knit the size Medium. Pictured here is my second Trilce, size Large, knit in Lamb’s Pride Bulky. The Manos resulted in a cozy, sort of tousled sweater to lounge around the house in. The Lamb’s Pride Bulky made a heavier sweater with much more drape and a cleaner line. One pattern, two yarns, and so two rather different sweaters. (I love them both.)

This sweater knits up easily in a weekend (if you don’t have a toddler).

    It’s lovely in both versions. I’m impressed that you got the pattern written and up for sale given how busy you are with Thumper around!
