It took five skeins of Patons SWS -- 70% wool, 30% soy, natural plum colorway. I enjoyed working with the yarn--it's soft and cushy, with a really nice sheen from the soy. The colors are all me--purpley pinky goodness. I can't carry off a wrap like this though, so it's destined as a Christmas gift.
Clapotis is definitely a great pattern--so much opportunity for modifications and substitutions. I have the distinct feeling that this will not be my only clapotis.
Sure, you deserve one. You helped popularized lolcats from a running gag to an online sensation. Now mainstream media writes asinine columns on this 'phenomenon', students write theses on the topic, programming languages adopt the grammar, and losers write tests about them on dating sites. Now take your cheezburger and never touch the internets again.
To see all possible results, checka dis.

It's gorgeous !!
I love that yarn, I have a few skeins in blue, I might give it a go :)
That's lovely!! I'm not a fan of that SWS, but your clap makes me think twice!
Congrats on your clap. It's lovely
Gorgeous. What do you mean, you can't carry it off? It's all about attitude! If you want to give it, give it. But if you really want to keep it, then do, and wear it with pride!
Gorgeous job there! Lovely colors!
Fabulous! I've not seen that yarn before - now I want some! I'm a Clapotis lover - need to get to work on my third.
I keep seeing this yarn more and more and I... MUST...TRY!! Because your clap is absolutely beautiful. Fold it in half and wear it as a lovely thick scarf if wraps aren't your thing! I think it's a lovely gift, but DO knit something for yourself in that gorgeous yarn!!
Gorgeous clapotis! I've had my eye on the SWS yarn since it came out and now I definately want to try it.
I love it! You did a great job.
*says the girl who still hasn't finished her clappy...
Gorge, Us! Byew-tif-wool! Next one: Packer colors. What the world needs now is ClaPACKtis. Soytainly. Or is it Bambootainly?
ooh! It's so nice and shiny! Congrats! I hope to finish my first clap this weekend. I'm in section four. Except I think I might need another skein.
;( Like you, mine is a christmas gift as well! :)
Psh, I never wear mine (as either a wrap or scarf...but it's never cold here), I just like looking at it! I love it. Your's is very pretty. It has a nice sheen!
