like potato chips....

Ah, here we are again with the Noro. Striped scarf that is. I just could not resist this color combo. I realize that it is the dead center of summer, but the hypnotizing stripes of Noro could not be denied. So, looking forward (as I am, summer is not my favorite) to fall I chose these colors. Not as dramatic as I had hoped, but yummy just the same.

Fickle Fiber Flitting

Oh, I was so in love with you






Habu....you must know that you fill a sweet picot edged pocket in my heart. I must though confess to a new fiber of the moment that has caught my wandering eye. It all started with a shipment of knitting books from Japan. I ordered them from www.yesasia.com, as I cannot read Japanese I took a chance and judged these books by their covers. One, a thin, tan book with just the beckoning hint of a sweater on it's cover wooed me. In this Asian treasure I found my new loves. Yes I plan to spend time with a few of these delicious darlings, trying one after the other until I am sweater-ed out. The first piece I have already begun. A vest in a velvety Noro and cashmire blend. So lovely Habu, I here post your picture as a finished object ready to be taken out, draped deliciously over my shoulder, for a splendid sushi lunch. yum, ademame!
