...that the textures are too unbearably different. I love each separate half, for its own reasons. Although I think I like (gasp) the non-Colinette half more! It's somehow prettier. I really enjoy seeing what different yarns can do when you hold them together; I guess that's part of it.
So I am contemplating trying to cut it in half and knit each half up with more of the same yarn... you know, send someone on a long, drawn out quest for each of them. Because there's only about 20 yards of the Eros left, and that's it. After I ran out of Santa Fe, I started in on the second half of the Zanziba-Giotto poncho I'm making for my sister. I am going to go by Knit NY this weekend and see what they think (and see if I can find any more Eros and Santa Fe - when I was there, they didn't think they had any more of the Eros in this colorway...)
So I'll keep you posted. And in the meantime, I'll continue knitting this poncho. I will post the pattern when it's all done! It's an interesting poncho, and a very quick knit.
