It’s 5 ‘o’clock somewhere! On The Rocks was inspired by the delightful Miss Babs colorway Shaken, Not Stirred that I just HAD to buy at Rhinebeck. This was no easy task, as the Miss Babs booth was far and away the busiest booth in the festival, and my knitting friends and I had to brave overflowing tote bags and elbows flying in all directions to get to the pretty colors. All the yarn!!!! was our motto, and we were not faint of heart, nor were we disappointed once we got there.

On The Rocks is knit in a 4-stitch, 4-row repeat, making for interesting, not-quite-mindless knitting, great for the long cold evenings indoors in the northern winters.
