Finishing projects

Today was so gorgeous that I had to go for a walk. Inevitably, that ended up at the LYS. It moved to a new location and it is AMAZING! I think it has the potential to become one of my favorite spots on earth. There was a staff member there who was incredibly helpful and gave me a lot of great suggestions.

Since I saw so many FANTASTIC fibers today, I made it a point to finish some of my projects that have been on my needles for quite some time. I finished two today. "Citron" and my "Knotty" gloves. Tomorrow, I hope to pick back on the "Delphine" project that I've been working on for ever. I'm a bit nervous because I haven't worked on it in quite some time, so I'm not really sure which direction I need to be working back from. It'll take a bit of brain-work, but I think I'll manage. I've only got a couple more projects to finish.

Also, since I've got a reasonable amount of scraps, I'm going to try to knit some amigurumi from Hansi Singh's wonderful book, "Amigurumi Knits". The colors won't be quite right, but it'll burn through some of the yarn I've got left over. I love this book. There are a lot of clever designs and it definitely has been giving me some inspiration. At the very least, I am going to change the some of the designs.

Upcoming projects:
- Satine (floaty tunic). I plan on knitting this up in Knitpicks Aloft. I am determined to finish a mohair project. I have a feeling that I will go insane.

- Gemini: I want to use Lenpur linen (rowan), but it is a bit expensive. It would be ideal to have four skeins of either the Jungle, Lagoon, or Incense colorway... preferably the Jungle.

So that's what's new for me... I will be getting some pictures up (hopefully in the near future).
