I cast on for Rosa Romantic on July 13, it’s a Niebling pattern from Lena magazine.

Rosa romantic startThis is the progress so far, I’ve knitted the first round of leaves and am working on the second.

The yarn is 100% cashmere from Colourmart, in teal. Lovely stuff.

  • Very pretty! I love the color, too. I’ve been tempted by Niebling but have yet to acquire any patterns…given my queue that may be a good thing!

    Can’t wait to see your progress

  • Gorgeous! What a pretty leaf.

  • Oh, please please pretty please post LOTS of progress photos as you knit the Niebling! It’s gorgeous.

  • I concur with the request for lots of photos. That is really lovely, I’m planning a Niebling project as soon as those I’m working on are complete. It looks like a lot of fun!

  • That leaf is spectacular!!!
    I can barely resist scouring the net for Niebling patterns now.
    Must finish Daedelus first!! (hhm… this could be incentive!)

  • Gosh, you’re brave…and in a dark yarn, too! You go, girl! It’s already quite stunning. I’ve gotten myself a few of his patterns as I, too, aspire to knit one or two of his lovely works, but I haven’t yet had the courage to cast on as I have no idea how I’m going to deal with the German it’s written it… best of luck to you, it’s looking like you’re going along swimmingly!
