Okay so I've just finished
Brokeback Mountain, a beautiful sad movie that nearly had me crying, but also thinking and not crying, and also knitting without crying. Firstly I'll tell you about my thinking sans crying. I recently acquired two balls of Bendigo WoollenMills in 8 ply Mystique (75%Wool, 20% mohair 5% alpaca - softest stuff you have ever touched). There weren't quite the colours I wanted and the intended recipient of one of the balls was a total jerk. SO! I am offering one or both balls to the person who writes in and tells me why one or both of these beautiful yarns should live with you. Yarn goes to the funniest person. Remember we are talking about 400m (Each!) of beautiful mohair and alpaca!
Progress on the knitting front too.
From this before the movie:
From that, after the movie. need to measure it (in inches... grrr)
Please note the top pic is the closest to the real colour. but look at the progress!
look what I just discovered! another competition!
Vintage KAL - if you can guess the approximate years the patterns were published in, you get a prize! imagine if you had those beautiful needles, with my beautiful yarn (and it is gorgeous!!) oh the possibilities!!
adios future prizewinners!
