This is one of my favorite knits. It's a bolero-style cropped jacket. The pattern came from the book "Naturally Noro" and was designed for their Aurora yarn. I was at the yarn shop all ready to buy Aurora when lo-and-behold I saw this gorgeous variegated 99% rayon hand-dyed gorgeous stuff from the Great Adirondack Co. just calling my name. It's seed stitch all over except for a picot edging around all of the edges. The drape of this fabric is just incredible. There's a little glimmer thread throughout the yarn. Once again, I wish the color was better so you could see that the base color is really a dark purple/navy with turquoise and other blue highlights.
