Stay Tuned...

Bolero...you sly dog you...

I just finished the back and front edging on the Bolero...and am almost done with the sleeve #1 edging.

I expect to have it modeled for you this evening...

I'm so excited.

Oh, and so disappointed in the IK Issue I got on Saturday.

Decent Designs?
Interweave Knits Fall Issue Page

Union Square Market by Kate Gilbert of course...very chic...not me...but chic. Bravo, Kate.

Amy "Boogie" King's Drop Stitch Cardi
Love that. Thinking of making it. really like it. a lot.
Saving grace of the mag for me, thanks Amy.

Rib and Cable Socks..decent.

The subscriber content is okay for the sock pattern.

Le sigh.

I ebay ordered the July Simply Knitting. I cannot be stopped.
If I can't buy yarn...then ogling the shiny magazine pages will have to do.

Get Your Own Simply Knitting Magazine via EBAY

I love getting close to finishing a project. Stay Tuned!

I feel the same way about the IK issue.
The Drop Stitch Cardi is the only thing that saves it from being a total loss. I like the satchel, but would never make it.

Bolero, bolero, bolero!!

We got a sneak preview of the IK at my place this weekend and I only saw one thing in there that I liked - the cable shrug (great for overly a/c'd offices and no-heat apartments).

Can't wait to see your sassy bolero!

I definately have to order those magazines...Simply knitting. There are only a couple cute knits in the new IK. I have to see it in person though.

Can't wait to see your Bolero!!!

Hmmm, not sure I like too many of those patterns either. I'll have to keep looking at them to see if any of them grow on me. Can't wait to see the bolero modeled - ole!

I can't wait to see your bolero! I didn't get my IK on Saturday. darn it! I think my mailperson decides to go surfing instead of delivering the mail sometimes. That's Santa Cruz for ya.

I feel the same way about the new IK. . . then again, I'm also knitting the Fiery Bolero in black, wearing DM's to work, and carrying a L.A.M.B. bag, so is that such a surprise??? I'm plugging away on my bolero, and am on the left front at the the moment.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOUR BOLERO!

So sorry about shouting. I couldn't help myself with my enthusiasm and all.

Hey! I still have to finish the right side and the edging. It's been so hot to knit. I need air conditioning.
