Panta is on the needles!

I finally started my Panta for the Panta-along. I had a hard time choosing yarn for it. I have so much stash yarn that fits the bill but it was hard picking one to coordinate with my other winter accessories. I finally settled on the Phildar Partner in aviateur. It is a really nice cushy yarn that is 50% polyamide, 25% wool, and 25% acrylic for washability. I have one ball leftover from a sweater and hat I knit for Julian in the fall. The catch is that the pattern uses about 75 yards and this ball has 71 yards. So I'm hoping that it'll work out. So far so good. I spent about half an hour knitting this morning and am already well into the third section.

There's nothing like the thrill of a quick knit, is there?
