woo hoo!

December 12, 2006

There has been more knitting than movies in my life lately. Christmas is busy! Today, after picking up my snowboard from the shop (yay it’s waxed! Company ski day is on Wednesday and I wanted my board all spiffed up), I came home to find this at my door:

Yes, yes, this package came to me from Belgium!! I am making a sweater from the Winter2006/2007 Tendances, and I’ve been using more wool than I think I’m supposed to, so wonderful Nicole at Phildar Wervik hunted around for some of the same dyelot, because she is awesome!! And who can buy just two balls of yarn, I decided to see what their other yarns were like:

There is some Licorne, which I might try to make a three colour version of the Blue Sky Alpaca hot water bottle cozy. Not sure what I’ll do with the Partner, it’s softer than the Quietude, but only 25% wool. Maybe something babyish. I like how all of their yarn is machine washable!

I do have other recent additions to the stash, you’ll see that soon!
