This is a test swatch for " Snowflakes Tam Pattern" by Strings And Sealing Wax. I simplified the motif as I wasn't sure if I could handle colour work. It's a bit hard to see (having trouble with my photo's flaring) the colours are blue/white on black background, The pattern has x3 colour changes in the trees dark to light but I didn't have any leftover bits to use. I think I'll knit a simple Tam first to get used to the style of pattern then go for gold with Snowflakes!!! I love the way the trees line up on the Tam top. PS I'm on Ravelry! as wattlebirdies but there's not much to see yet. Have a peek at strings and sealing wax and her lovely patterns. http://sasw.blogspot.com/5 February 2008
