Stash Appreciation: Tosh Vintage

IMG_9936

Along with the Madelinetosh Merino Light, I also got a couple other things, including this skein of Tosh Vintage.  I'm a sucker for pale pinks, especially when they're as perfect as this one.  I've seen a lot of really gorgeous projects on Ravelry out of Vintage, so I thought I'd try it out.  I usually buy fingering weight when just buying one skein of something, but the combination of the weight and color of this really drew me.

I like that even though it's a heavier weight, it has that lovely squishiness imparted by the twist, very similar to Tosh Sock, which I've used before and enjoyed.

I think it's destined to become a little bow scarf, the anthro-inspired scarflet on Ravelry, that will be great little accent piece.
