Hey there! Sorry for my scarceness....but I've been spending loads of
time over at my boyfriend's place lately. :-D As a result, there isn't any FO or WIP
pictures to show (yet). Sorry, but I've also been pretty uninspired to
take pictures lately.
However, I'm not that uninspired to
cast-on countless pairs of socks. Like I have mentioned in the previous
post, I've cast on a pair of Boyfriend Socks
for myself. I'm on to the second one now....but still haven't taken any
decent photos yet. So, you'll just have to wait for the FO picture.
Yarnissima's Brainless is being put on hold while I'm working on the BF socks....just too much cabling for me.
I found out from my boss at Lanaiolo after I've finished my Riverbed silk socks
out of the OnLine Silk that OnLine is discontinuing that line....or
well, they haven't got it in their up-coming season. There are two
other colourways (one of them being in the above photo, the other one
is HERE)
that I really like of the yarn, and seriously, I really like the feel
of the silk blend yarn, too! So, what else is a knitter to do apart
from grab them before they're gone. :-p (If anybody wants the yarn, we
still have them at the shop - also in other colourways -....and you can
order online via us, too. :-p)
Anyway, because the BF socks and
Brainless are giving me too much cabling, I decided that I need to cast
on for a simpler pair of socks and decided to grab the skein in the
above picture and cast on for a pair toe-up Jaywalkers. Simple enough, but won't be too boring for me. ;-) Pictures will follow. :-p
So, talking about Lanaiolo,
the second Knit-Night in 2009 is this Friday. Most of you that know the
shop probably will be there anyway....but I think that we're pretty
full already. Heck, give us a call if you want to see whether you can
pop in. ;-)
