    It’s hard keeping projects like this from you guys! I worked on it hard in July and August.

    Alexis is a hawt model, no? Michelle’s a super hawt photographer, too.

    I know the yarn is spendy, but it is So. Beautiful. (I don’t mind if you substitute, of course!)

    As for the “what are the boots?? the BOOTS!!!” question, I’m on it. I’ll let you know tomorrow after I call her ; )

  • the promise of new knits

    I love winding yarn. Transforming a skein into the ready-to-knit position, seeing how the colours blend, and having a stackable item afterwards! I only wind when I’m ready (or at least almost ready) to use the yarn, and I just love all the promise of new projects that they hold.

    Isn’t it cool? I’m not much into novelty-type yarns, but this one is 100% cotton (and of course, dyed by me). I’ve got two big skeins, 225 g each. We’ll see if my project idea works out…hopefully I’ll be able to start soon, but I have so very many other things to do and knit at the moment!

    savannah DK

    Possibly the most fabulous yarn ever, but then again, I say that to all the skeins! This is Savannah DK by the Fibre Company, and is composed of wool, cotton, soy, and linen.

    It’s not very stretchy, but the colours are just fabulous and it is sooooo soft. The plan? Road to Golden from the latest Knitscene.
