You look a little feverish! I think you should go home and go straight to bed.

My Knit Picks shipment just arrived too – and it looks like the exact same color you bought! (Blue Bell?!) What are you planning on making?
[color=blue]Hi Holly! It is Vacation yarn - Ocean. Am planning this cardigan… lol… but my plans change on a whim. What are you making with yours?

the cardigan! Is it knit in the round, or in pieces? I’m still looking for that perfect pattern to try a sweater . Kelly is knitting a Knitting Pure and Simple pattern (from the neck down) that looked great, and there is a knit picks DVD that teaches that method…hmmm
I’m going to be doing the Oregon Tote in mostly blue with yellow contrast. I was a little disappointed that the yellow was very pale (compared to how bright the blue was), but I’m sure it will be fine once felted . I bought yarn for my SIL that came in the same shipment – fuscia and black for her bag.
congratulations!!!
[color=blue]Holly the cardigan is knit in peices and the pattern is from knit picks. It is free on their site. Would you like me to send you the url? I can’t remember how to put an URL in without pasting the entire thing lol. I love the Oregon Tote, I have not felted yet but picked up the yarn for clogs :shifty: have been to chicken :oops: to start them though!

The clogs were a great project for me – I was very confused when I read ahead on the pattern, but it all made sense as I followed it line by line . I’ve never done a felted bag, so I can’t wait to start that project :XX: . I’ll check out knit picks for that pattern, but I will wait on starting a sweater until I finish up my current projects!! I’m actually gettting to the point of needing a second set of Denises because of all my outstanding projects :oops: !! (I didn’t list below that I also have a shawl on the needles because I couldn’t refuse a 1/2 price sale at Hobby Lobby!! The yarn was synthetic, but super soft and fuzzy – I can’t think of the name now)
