Seahorses Nachaq Pattern

Seahorses NachaqI found some BuffBoo on sale at my LYS, and picked up a couple of skeins. I planned to use it as a practice for the qiviut I purchased this past summer, but I actually found I liked the sheen of the buffboo in this pattern more than the qiviut. Guess I still need to keep looking for that perfect qiviut pattern. The pattern as written works for one skein, but I used a part of a second to get mine to be the length I wanted.

Materials
1 skein Buffalo Gold Buffboo #13, laceweight, 300 yds (part of a second skein is optional)
US 4 16” circular needle
Cable needle
Stitch marker
Yarn needle for weaving ends

Hi, This is a lovely design and it came out really well in the BuffBoo yarn.

Have you seen the book by Donna Druchunas called 'Artic Lace'? She researched all about Quiviut yarn and has some patterns inspired from the Alaskan artisans and their culture. It is still available at Amazon. I found the book fascinating to read :)
