There is quite a lot of swatching and frogging happening behind the scenes at the moment. The word Patience has acquired a definite edge.
A design I’m working on is in its third incarnation…. love, love, love the yarn. Love what I’m trying to attempt too… as long as I can work out the bugs!
Some yarn that I desperately want to knit is in its third potential pattern swatch… I think I have finally found the one.
And a pattern I have just spied is begging to be knit…
As long as I can get the chosen yarn to knit at the right gauge…
A new yarn is coming on to the market, and I was very lucky to be sent a sample for feedback (shhhh….!) Doesn’t it look super though!?
If it all works out, there will be some very pretty stuff to show you soon.
Maybe.

I see all yummy yarn there… I’m sure you come up with some fab design & FOs in the end 🙂
Patience is the mantra

That is the question I am pondering at the moment actually. I like the look of hoods, but sometimes their weight really annoys me. And it’s meant to be a summer garment. So… I may just go without. We shall see!

You have some extremely lovely yarns here. New Zealand rocks when it comes to yarn. The intended projects look wonderful.

I could just bury my face in that stuff – it’s a sure way to find out whether a yarns going to be itchy!

Those swatches look really promisiing ! So my guess would be that the ‘maybe’ will become ‘definitely’.. 😉

“The word Patience has acquired a definite edge.”
I know exactly what you’re talking about, and this is the best description for it I’ve come across! Hope it smooths out soon!

That lace pattern is a perfect match for the grey. It’s funny to think that earlier this year you didn’t like lace, and now you are knitting it perfectly.

The marvels of what happens when one takes the time to learn lace properly!
