Pop spots in Einband

When I saw the Pop Spots shawl I fell in love and decided it needed to be number one on my to knit list.
On Syfestivalen I found some Einband yarn in happy spring colors and started (very! unlike me) to knit some samples just to see hit it would come out (and also to try the technique)

I first thought about doing a turquois with green spots but they were too similar.



So I went for the green with lime spots. I'll see about the border color when I'm there.
 
 
Knitting in Einband is a new experience, Its far from a soft yarn but I've heard that it will soften when washed. It also turns my fingers green.
