During the American Express Small Business Weekend, I purchase two skeins of Malabrigo Rasta. I've been holding on to them for the perfect pattern and basically just fondling them in the meantime.
Most patterns using Rasta are cowls and I'm not really a cowl kind of girl. Plus, lets face it, I live in Louisiana and we rarely have the weather for a cowl. Finally found a pattern that I liked called Ovate thanks to my friend Mitzi.
The Ovate is probably the first pattern that I completed that I love. LOVE! Here are some photos and I highly recommend the pattern. While it isn't mindless knitting, it isn't hard and the end result is fabulous.
