View Article  Heat Would Be Nice
We're still without heat, and it really is no fun. No. Fun. At All. I stayed home today because the lack of heat in the apartment has made me sick. I spent the morning snugged under the covers dreaming of warm places. I feel gobs better, but I would like to be warm.


View Article  Yarn Heavy
This will be a very yarn heavy post, as I finished my nephew's birthday present and the yarn I bought for the stole I'm making my Mom for Christmas came in.



Made with Knit Picks Wool of the Andees, in Evergreen on size 10 needles. I modified a pattern from Stitch 'n Bitch.



This is the yarn I'm using to make Mom's Gothic Leaf Patterned stole. It's 50% silk, 30% wool, 20% nylon, from Fiddlesticks Knitting, colour scheme Rose Garden, purchased through Kaleidoscope Yarns, all 800 metres of it. Niels was AWESOME and held the hank so I could wind it. I was too impatient to wait to use Stacy's ballwinder and wanted to start knitting with it right away.



Here's a close up, the colours are very very subtle and I love it!!
