Not much to report on the knitting front, other than that I gave in and finally put some honesty into my WIP progress bars…adding the Baudelaires and a 4th WIP, the Ribbi Cardi I’m doing as a gift. I started it surreptitiously last week one evening and got through one ball of yarn.
Here are some delicious pics of the Kool Aid yarn I dyed last weekend, finally wound up into a ball:
(KnitPicks ‘Bare’ superwash fingering weight yarn, dyed with Kool-Aid inMy copy of the Winter 2006 Interweave Knits finally arrived last week, and of course there are so many patterns to covet, and of course I dont’ need any more projects to think about. Still…The Equestrian Jacket, Pewter Coat, and Venezia Pullover are all frikkin’ gorgeous. I might even have to have a close look at the Cabernet Ribs sweater. But I don’t understand why anyone would make that Cable and Bobble Headband…Hmm… 😉
May the rest of your weekend be filled with knitting.
I can’t wait until the new Knits is out in the stores — from the preview it looks like it’s a must buy.
That yarn will make some gorgeous socks. I’ve only tried dying once. I may have to try again after having seen how well yours turned out.
i saw my friend’s advance copy (her wwebsite ad is in it) and I am just dying to get a copy for myself.
so, so, many nice things.
and when i’m done spinning this fiber, i coming to you for dying help. that yarn is really lovely.
Very very pretty! Yummy in fact.
I was really taken with the Nantucket jacket…
