Look her up on Ravelry & see if one of the pattern books looks familiar. It sounds like "W906 Roaming Cable Sweater" but of course, no photo.Published in Rowan California Cotton leaflet.

I don't remember the Rowan yar...Yup! DK weight. I don't remember the Rowan yarn, nor did I know about Sally Fox, but certainly became with familiar with subsequent yarns of its ilk. Pakucho was being marketed for a while through Peru Naturex, and is also now available through Eccobutterfly in weights from lace to bulky. I know the dark green is still the hardest to grow, and therefore the most expensive. I believe even Lion Brand had Lion Organic cotton, which kinda makes me wince, but it is also now discontinued.<br /><br />I love the stuff, and have quite a few skeins of Pakucho left in my stash....plus a tank top to rip out. Perhaps I should get that out and have a frogging party one night?meghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11430163597627990532noreply@blogger.com
