I'm having major sweater lust. The old favorites are all coming back to me, begging to be knit. Like Rosedale and Salt Peanuts (if only people would stop talking about it!). Damn you, cardigans! Let me knit in peace!
I have a really good idea for my sister's Christmas present, and I wish I could talk about it here, but she might know I do that stuff here. So shhhh. Suffice it to say it's one of those ideas/patterns that jumps into your head right as you're waking up, the kind of thing that uses up the stash you've been wondering about and fretting over, the kind of idea that moves mountains and makes you a hero, and the kind that disappears really quickly if you don't talk about it. So I better find somewhere to write it down.
My Interlocking Balloons scarf is a skosh over 1/2 done. It's no longer for the boyfriend, since he's very tall and needs a long scarf. Since the scarf isn't long to begin with and I went down a needle size for aesthetic reasons, I have to give it to someone much shorter. And I know just the person.
Dear Twin Citians,
The Twin Cities Knit-Out is this Sunday, October 3, at the Ridgedale Mall in Minnetonka, from 1 to 5 pm. I'll be there! I'm also going to be helping teach people to knit.
I'm up earlier than usual today. I blame being excited. Today I'm going with a friend to a new spinning shop in the northern suburbs. Huzzah!
