stash, knit, repeat

Fondling yarn since 2003.

See you soon!

Thanks so much for your opinions on the yarn, everyone. It was really interesting to see what the word “deep” meant to all of you. My instinct was that a deep color would be both dark in tone and very saturated. But if I take the majority opinion, it seems like I’m wrong and that saturation is the really important part of it. The outcome? Well, I ordered some Louet and tomorrow or Saturday when it arrives (holy fast shipping batman!) I’ll line them all up and choose.

Meanwhile, before my blogging hiatus, I’ve finished the knitting on the tank.

Weaving in ends, here I come! And because I’m lacking in pictures of the Tangled Yoke recently, here’s a snap of the really pathetic progress I’ve made on the first sleeve.

On the plus side, I’ve got a week’s worth of Daily Shows and an entire dvd of Lost episodes (season one, I’m behind the times) to get through. You know, when I’m not moving. :)

See you next week!

    I forgot to say earlier today, good luck with the move, and we’ll miss you while you’re gone!

    Good luck with the move! (Are you just moving house in the same town? Wasn’t there talk of moving elsewhere? You know…like Portland?)

    Good luck on the move. The waterlily top is just so nice. It is different that what you usually knit, but in a good way. And I think it’s going to be very, very flattering.

    I hope the move went well! It sounds like you’ve got some great TV to watch during the down times, too :)
