I hope everyone has plans to stay in, keep warm, and knit the weekend away -- especially those of you enduring SNOWMAGEDDON this weekend! I wish we were getting a snow in Memphis this weekend, but, alas, it is going to be a dreary wet 50 degree weekend.
Oh, well... It should be a good weekend for baking gingersnaps...
...and for working on the THREE (Count'em ! There are only 3!!!) WIPs I have on the needles right now. I shall try my very best not to cast on another project this weekend. Even though I really want to because Stephen West just released the first set of patterns from his new KAL book, "Westies Besties" and also because I have recently acquired this:
The yarn is Lorna's Laces, Helen's Lace in the Sand Ridge colorway and it came to me through my LYS during a half price New Year's sale (I had been looking at this yarn for 9 months but couldn't justify the $50 per skein price tag).
It goes with these:
...to make a Shipwreck.
So send strong willed vibes my way -- I'm not sure I can resist casting this one on much longer...
Knit Happy Everyone!
Please stay safe and warm this weekend...
OK you posted this--this morning, so surely you have cast on for Shipwreck by now!! That is DROP dead gorgeous. (for Rachel???? One lucky girl!) would you mind sending that gingersnap recipe my way?? They look mighty good, and I'm ready for a change from chocolate chip.
ReplyDeletehave a great weekend.
