Clapotis II
I do have something else to show for my holiday besides prize-winning goosepimples. My second Clapotis knitted in Axelle's wonderful DK cashmere in the Japanese Maple colourway. I am so pleased I've got this off the needles at last (partly because it's going to be cold enough to wear it soon). All credit to the England cricket team for playing so well today that I've just had to sit still and knit and watch the fantastic Freddie Flintoff.
Close-ups of colour, stitch detail and the trademark wavy movement as modelled by Alice:

That is a truly gorgeous Clapotis.

So pretty! The color will definitely brighten up a gloomy fall day. My Clap is only half-way there...must keep knitting!

Bravissima clapotissima!
Really love the color and the name of the color.
Very influenced by names,

Axelle's cashmere- Mmmm so divine. I can imagine the delight that your neck will feel, in addition to the visual pleasure of the glorious colours...
