I'd been watching all the beautiful Scheepjes Whirl projects flying through my Facebook feed and couldn't wait to get my hands on some as everyone seemed to love this yarn. It's a fingering yarn made by Scheepjes made in The Netherlands and runs about $26 a skein. It's 1000 meters so can produce a lot of projects with a single skein. I personally love the feel and the very pretty drape it creates. As you can see, the colorway is very gradual with and the color changes blend right into the work with no knots and no tails to weave!
I had the hardest time deciding what to make with my first skein of Blueberry BamBam. After lots of Pinterest and Facebook hunting, I settled on the Bruinen pattern by Jasmin Räsänen on Ravelry. You can find this free pattern here. The only change I made was I used an F/3.75 hook as I tend to crochet loosely. I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out.
I am in the process of completing my second Whirl project...check back soon to see it!
