new to the knitalong

I've just recently joined, have the pattern printed out and am shopping through my stash to see if I already have a suitable yarn for this lovely sweater. I'll be able to get started on it over the Christmas holidays and am looking forward to it very much. If I don't find the perfect wool for it in my stash, I'll be very tempted to order some Black Water Abbey, something I've been wanting to do for a long time anyway! :)
