No crafting happening here yet, but atleast I'm thinking about it! I'm itching for a new knitting project--something for a grown up (ME!) out of some fabulous yarn. I just saw that HandPainted Yarn has two new yarns, Ejido 160 and Colonia 140. I've been a huge fan of their Merino Worsted in the past, and used it for lots of projects (bummer that they don't seem to carry it at all anymore). Check out these yummy colors:
But then there's this one from Knit Pixie that is just oh-so-heavenly too:
I don't even know what project I want this all for. I'm just CRAVING NEW YARN! And browsing around, I've seen two new knitting books that have my interest piqued, but so far, not many reviews about either are around. Has anyone picked either of these up yet? Any thoughts?
Handknits for Kids by Lucinda Guy. You can see some of the patterns in the book at the KnitPicks website (View Inside Pages).
And, Alterknits, by Leigh Radford.
Has anyone seen these yet?
