It’s been a very hectic week and I’m looking forward to sitting down on the couch with my knitting, a glass of wine and watch a really good movie . Since hubby and I are off to see Half Blood Prince tomorrow, maybe it will be a Harry Potter night. I am knitting up two more of the face cloths my mom ~ she’s going to be so excited to receive a package in the mail loaded with little goodies, including the face cloths. I will also be starting to design a hat to match my Painted Cables scarf pattern and hope to have it posted soon to Ravelry and Etsy.
I’m happy to report that I finally broke down an purchased a Royal ball winder and wonder why I didn’t do that much sooner. Speaking of which, I ordered my winder on Saturday the 18th from Jimmy Beans Wool and received it Monday the 20th. Now that is what I can speedy delivery. I love Jimmy Beans Wool and could spend a small fortune off their website ~ needless to say, I most likely already have. Anyway, I will be busy this weekend winding up my stash and so far, I’ve made balls from the lovely yarn that I purchased from Jennifer ~ her yarn is so beautifully soft and I can’t wait to knit it up. Her shop is on vacation until August 1st, but do check her out. Many of her colorways are inspired by the Great Masters of art.
Happy knitting and stay cool this summer!
