i couldn’t wait…

I knew what it was gonna be before I even got it. I could picture it in my head… so after a few days of admiring (and petting) the skein, I finally wound Carnivale into a center pull ball and cast on. I’m not using a pattern, really … I got some guidelines for size from another pattern, chose a stitch pattern and started knitting.

(This is the back of the project, btw. I’ll reveal the front upon completion ;) )

In other news, my dear friend Sira now has a knitting blog!!!! I’m so happy about this! Please take a moment to stop by and say hello and welcome her to Knit Blog Land! :D

Sira’s Blog

Have a good week!!!

Today.

I hate today. TODAY will never be all right. No matter how much you go through your daily routine, thinking it’s an okay day. It’s not.

I think this is why I can’t knit today. I’ve tried. Knit. Rip. Knit. Rip. You may think you’re all right, but the knitting will reflect the truth. Today will never be okay.

good things come to those who wait

What am I talking about, you ask?

Why Dave’s Cabin Cove Mercantile of course. It’s been been stocked full of fibery goodness … different sorts of yarn (including some gorgeous yarn handspun by Dave) and something new, spinning fiber. And don’t forget to checkout the Cabin Cove Cards that feature some of Dave’s photography. :)

I’m sure you’re wondering if I bought anything. Well, I sure did … but you’ll have to wait and see after I get the fibery goodness in my hot little hands. (and I’m sure you noticed I waited until AFTER I bought my fiber goodies to post this :D )

Well… that’s all I have to say … so why don’t you just go visit Cabin Cove Mercantile and see for yourself. Not much goin’ on here anyway.

Adios!
