Happy New Year!
Do you understand my wish for a merry Christmas?
My vaca to Colorado was great - full of wonderful people, food, and weather! The whole visit was a lot of fun! I look like a giant on skis:
While out there, I received many gifts of great yarn to add to my stash:
-Cherry Tree Hill sock yarn in the Martha's Vineyard Colorway- already being knit into a pair of falling leaf socks for myself.
-Blue Skies Alpalca - in purple, green, and tan. I'd like to turn this into a soft, wintry hat. Possibly Brooklyntweed's Red Light Special.
-Light and dark purple new wool - I'm still thinking of a project for these.
I also bought a beautiful knitting book that is full of pictures of both knitted swatches and nature shots, called The Art of Knitting.
Finally - one of my goals for 2007 - KNIT A SWEATER! I'm going to place an order for knit picks yarn as soon as I get back to Boston.
ps. Today is Russian Christmas, although with no snow on the east coast, it sure doesn't feel like it!
thank god you posted...i was starting to check your blog upwards of 5 times a day! i have been working on a ton of fun stuff but misplaced the USB cable for my camera (duh!) and had to order a new one. when it gets here expect some image heavy emails.
