On Tuesday I went to stay with my friend/knitting teacher Maureen for a few hours. She is a bit laid up for the next few weeks, but we got to hang out for a while.
I knitted a scarf using a hank of Link by Berocco. I had purchased this last fall in some black/gray shades. This was an unusual selection for me as I usually pick bright colors. In a moment of serendipity, this color will match the new winter jacket I got which is black with gray fur (fake) around the hood.
I also have two or three kits for thrummed items - slippers and a hat. I found a great tutorial for this technigue at http://www.helloyarn.com/wp/?p=425 (Sorry, my Link button is not working). A LYS has some breakfast club classes in thrummed mittens which I don't think I can do, but this tutorial might do the trick for me.
Still have Cat Bordhi's Never Get Cold hat and a traveling scarf OTN.
This blog will chronicle my attempt to stop buying yarn in 2010. I admit that I am powerless over my addiction.
