Wishlist/Update

Hi!

 

I don't have much of an update, other than to ramble on and on.....

 

So I thought I'd share what I've been dreaming about lately

 

And by dreaming, I mean drooling

 

So you can exclude zombies. Plus that was last night's nightmare....

 

Anyway... I've been looking at yarn online

 

I worked out that to buy enough for two upcoming projects, and using the yarn recommended by the designer, it would cost me AUD $72.90

 

Thats $84 NZD!

 

Outragous when I could get a suitable enough yarn at my LYS* for less than $20 for the same projects!

 

But a little squirrel (who am I kidding, we don't have squirrels in NZ) better make that possum, told me my LYS is having a good sale soon so I will be keeping my eyes open!

 

I've also been drooling at this:

 

 

Can you tell what it is? Its the KnitPro interchangeable circular set

 

I MUST HAVE IT!!!

 

I look at it all the time, just to make sure its still real

 

All the knitting nerds say 'yeea-aah'

 

Ahem

 

Well in other yarn related news I cast on my blue hand-dyed about a week ago

 

I started making this scarf

(yip, still obsessed with WWK)

 

Here's my progress so far:

 

 

I've done over 30cm so far and almost two pattern repeats

 

Only 140cm to go!

 

You can check out my up-to-date progress here. Its not going very quickly as I'm working on something else at home and only working on this at my LYS in my lunchbreak

 

Once I finish the at-home-special-request/secret-project I'll get back to the scarf

 

With the weather warming up I'm running out of cold to wear my woolly items!

 

Here's Whangarei's weather for this week

 

 

So while this was a boring non-eventful post, I hope you do like my blog

 

Because I enjoy writing it and you're not getting rid of me that easily!!!
