Huh?

Now, how funny is this?

I'm thumbing through my favourite magazine, humming and enjoying myself when i stumble upon this!

What is it you ask?

It's Bronzer for your Face, stamped with knitting stitches!

It's everywhere people - knitting is taking over the world!

So comfy and cozy ...

A cable pillow for your sofa!

Just the thing to cozy up to on a chilly summer night (i know, an oxymoron, but oh, so true!)

July 15th, 10:30 - come and learn how to make a wonderful, chunky pillow!

Just like the ones you see at the high-end design shops! Only better, 'cause you did it!

Come alone, come with friends. We always have a ball!

sure could use a warm lap blanket right about now!

Just sitting here, quite satisfied that my spring planting has finally been done. Not my spring weeding, but that's another story.It's chilly here and i'm watching the spring rain.

I was thinking what i need is a lovely, patterned lap blanket. Just a little bit of somethin' somethin' to keep me warm on the spring evenings.

How about it? We could do a slip stitch pattern - very easy. A very simple garter stitch? Step it up and bit and do a bit of cableing? You could use cotton? Bamboo? Even light weight wool?

The world is your oyster my friend.

Go make a pearl.
