Smart Peeps
I’m glad I’m virtually surrounded by peoples that know their shit! Most of you voted for the Yarn Ahoy color combo for my Tempest cardigan and it’s coming out fantastic.
I really like the contrast in the colors. The pattern is super easy to follow and it’s going rather quickly. It’s also good commuting knitting!
This past week I placed a couple of orders, Little Knits and Loopy Ewe. After finishing Alhambra this week (yes, it’s finished; FO post later this week!), I’m in the mood to knit lace. Mostly Anne Hanson patterns BUT I ALSO want to design my own triangle shawl! I’m really really hoping to be able to figure this out. SO I ordered some Kauni from Little Knits in a gorgeous colorway and plan to try my hand at triangles using that!
In the meantime, I also finished one little thingie:
This is the Baby Got Back Thong. Designed by yours truly.
This is my first design that I am selling. But all proceeds go to Ravelry.
As an additional incentive, I am offering a gift bag to the first person to purchase my pattern and every 10th person afterwards up to the 100th person.
So you have a chance to win one of ELEVEN gift bags! Each bag will contain a skein of Panda Cotton for you to knit your own Baby Got Back! Thong and a bar of Rosi G. handmade soap. ;o)
