These sun-filled days have inspired me to surround myself with colour.
This means projects, of course! (seeing as the ground is rock solid, no can do out there)
I started working madly on a sock made with Crazy Zauberball. I know I've said it before, but really, these colour changes make me crazy for more! Is that how they got the name? Anyway, I'm almost done sock number one.
Then I thought I would cast on for this shawl, one that I've been thinking about for almost two years. I chose the perfect yarn (in my mind) for it, sweet georgia's merino silk lace in the colourway botanical. For Photosynthesis, how fitting, indeed. The colour is best depicted in the first picture below.
I made my way through the little leaf section, then thought, "I am cold sitting here, knitting this lace."
So I bagged it up, put it hold until the weather warms up a bit. Really, it is zero degrees out there, I think the sun got to me.
Next, I pulled out this little bit of heaven:
Malabrigo worsted in Amoroso, to be made into the Sugar Maple Shawl. Sigh....more cosyness to look forward to.
To the ball winder we go!
I have more to show you, lots of good sewing stuff is going on! Coming soon.
