Not doing an actual Bernat project but I am using Bernat yarn...does that count? I am making an evening wrap with Bernat Sparkle in Twilight but the pattern is from that pumping crimson organ. I needed something really light and airy for my D-I-law. They live in Houston so it has to be light. It is a triple crochet V-stitch with a very unusual lacy scalloped border. I LOVE that look of Sparkle. It has a nice sheen and the sparkle is very subtle.

I love the Satin Sparkle yarn too! It's not too sparkly - just right. ;)
I hope you will post a photo of your wrap soon!

The wrap will be 18" by 54" when done. The border is 7 repeats and is worked seperately which I love. When I get bored with the V stitch I do a motif on the border. You also do single crochet on the edge of the border and wrap before you sew them together.

I plan to start another pillow in Trinity stitch, in Bernat SV, in Redwood, for my mom for Mother's Day.

Before the Kal/Cal started I was working on a knitted sweater for myself that I put on hold to do both Kal/Cal. I will continue it later. It is called KW-cable sweater. here is the link http://www.bernat.com/pattern.php?PID=4097 I am using Super value in Natural color. (very classic) But if I had to start over, I probably would use Bernat satin, this yarn is much softer, but I don't know if the look would have been the same :huh:

Wow, lialab, that sweater is perfect. I love the classic color. I think it will feel very soft and comfy when worn.
Excellent cable work! I am jealous! :mrgreen: You are an inspiration to us who are are yet to make a cabled item :notworthy:
