don't give up on me yet!

i'm still here...been living and knitting. work has been hell the last couple weeks, and my down time has been spent knitting & getting things done around the house rather than blogging. BUT! i have an fo and a new project i'm really excited to show you...more next post once i have photos.

i also discovered that i must be a bit of a masochist when it comes to this yarn thing. when i could have been blogging, i have instead spent the last couple of weeks torturing myself looking at hand-dyed, hand-spun, silk, cashmere, lace, wool, patterns, books, bags...so many beautiful things that i can't buy right now. i'm managing to keep myself under control, but there's one thing, just one...

i covet....oh, how i covet

i think in order to keep myself sane, i'm going to have to buy a couple skeins tomorrow. i had heard of socks that rock, of course, but i had never actually seen the colors. oh dutch canyon, highway 30, flourite, seal rock and scaponia, how i covet you all. i must have you!

more later, with knitting photo-y goodness!

I just went on a shopping spree at Smiley's Yarns online. $16 cashmere!
