Well I am almost done with the test knit for SWTC. It’s been nice. The Phoenix yarn is a pleasure to work with. Everyone who has seen me working on it has commented how beautiful it is.
There was one little surprise though. As soon as I got it wet to block it I found that it gave an odor.. not unpleasent.. it reminded me of Japan.. I made my husband smell it and told him now he knows what it smells like in Japan! That just proves that it is definitely made of soy!!
It also turns out that the base board of the pack n play makes a great blocking board!! Who knew!?
On to a new and hush hush project. Just got some yarn last night at the store.. They were so pleasant in email helping me to figure out what they had in stock.. but again, in person, I was made to feel like I was inconvieniencing them by entering there store and asking questions and disturbing their conversation. This is why I usually go to the other store..
Anyway.. I won’t be posting anything about the new project.. but I will be playing around with the new Ruffles yarn from Lion brand and the new Romance yarn from Lion brand since they sent me a nice goody box full of yarn and other goodies. I will be posting a tutorial on my Lion Blog about how to use the Ruffles yarn on the looms and probably using the Romance yarn to make a one skein project for my one skein pal! So on to cleaning and knitting.. I have deadlines to meet!
