YARN

I seem to do this every year at this time. I order yarn, and it is usually wool. My current addiction is Malabrigo worsted, chunky, and silky. this has got to be the softest wool i have held. and now i know why i avoided getting it in the first place: totally addictive.

Moira has claimed a hank for herself it seems in the merino silky nocturnal. i need to find more of the colourway i anly have 3 hanks which might get a scarf/hat combo but not much else but now i am thinking off a hood into scarf but maybe not, and not the common one that i used to make 8 years ago which was a strip folded inhalf and the fold end stitched back to make a cap with long tails to be wrapped around.

thinking is a bad thing for me as i start focusing on improbable solutions and sometimes succeeding

additions or is that addictions

Oliver or rather Oskar depending on who you are talking too seems to be a keeper. From being dumped in a parking lot left to starve he is now part of the tribe.

I am trying to have a moretoreum on ordering Bra's i think i have enough for a while now i need to watch what i spend on the clothing aspect of Bravissimo.com . I guess what is most in my favour with that is i am inbetween and just outside of their size range. This also makes me cry as they have such sweet dresses and tops.

and please don't say the 'Y' word i am so overbudget in my yarn consumption and they are bringing out some really killer stuff.

i have ordered a couple of skeins of Malabrigo silky merino in Nocturnal only 3 were remaining so what ever i knit in Moira's name will be small either a hat or shawl. this is definatly her yarn as she immediatly started to play with it straight out of the bag.

i bought 6 in the worsted merino colourway called lime/blue i think this will be for Lakota.

5 of whales road for Lusitania -thats all i could find.

the Fleece artist samira silk in the topaz colourway will be for Isolde it matches her eyes.

this leaves the berrocco seduce in vertigris for Gabrielli.
