a new book arrived 'men's knits' by erika knight fame...
for those of you ou there who are knitters, you have to agree that there is not much around for the guys..until now ..there is at least 4 i want to knit right now ..today..
then there was aother parcel filled with all the lovelies in the photo above ...some of the new spud and chloe fine in the most amazing colors with equally amazing names such as tutu ,sassafrass ,anemone ,cricket ,calypso ,dachsund ,clementine and gloworm..
and then some exqusite cashmere sock from artyarns in a pinky beige green..oohh ..i really need to knit..
also in the parcel ,some kaffe fassett sock yarns in subdued mud at the bottom of the pond colors...
with working in calicoandivy check out our website at http://www.calicoandivy.com/ kaffe HAS to be the best colorist around
his colors especially his shot cottons go with everything ..there is a color to match any fabric..he certainly lights up anything you happen to put with it...
he can sure make a quilt POP...
anyway off to workie now to see me maties and share in a few wows when we all have a cuddle of the new stuff..
