Rowan's British Sheep Breeds dk is a gorgeous yarn - much softer than I was expecting having used the chunky version and found it a bit scratchy. It looks great too, and (strange as it may sound) smells just like a good yarn ought to.
The diamond effect texture is achieved through a series of slipped stitches which are fully charted. I had to have the chart enlarged, though, since the version in the book would have given me a headache!
