]]> Knit Glove tag:vox.com,2007-02-01:asset-6a00c225271a828e1d00d4141e01593c7f 2007-02-01T19:56:40Z 2007-02-01T19:56:40Z Kelly Sue http://kellysue.vox.com/?_c=feed-atom-full
I knit this.
I knit this.
...In "I knit this," the "this" refers to the glove, not the sweater.  The sweater is from anthropologie. 

The glove was knit with Hello Yarn's hand-dyed sock yarn.  The pattern was S.W.A.K. Knits' multi-gauge glove pattern.

Wherein I nerd out on business only of interest to knitters:

  • I love, love, love the new Berroco booklet that was advertised in my e-mail this morning, Yin & Yang.  Okay, well, I don't love the vests.  The vests are hideous.  But the Sanpoku cardigan?  That cardigan is lovely and wearable.  There's something... I don't know -- Eileen Fisher, maybe? -- about it.  It also reminds of some of the more unusual pieces I've picked up at anthropologie.  (I pooh-poohed Eileen Fisher for ages.  I thought it was too "comfortable" to be chic on anyone but an elderly Japanese sculptor.  I was wrong.)
  • My Jordana Paige satchel arrived!  Just in time to go with me to Excelsior Springs for the weekend.  I can't wait. 
  • Speaking of the retreat, I learned the German twisted long tail cast on for my glove class and I have to say I love the edge it produces.  It might be my new favorite cast on.

No good comes from cyber stalking being a devoted fan. 

At some point you cross a line and you start thinking you have a relationship with your victim hero.  And when they pull the internet equivalent of not returning your calls -- not posting to their blog for more than a month -- you're hurt.  You start to wonder what you did wrong. 

Was it something I said, Eunny?

  • Laptop bag
  • Lil' Mynx removable dance pole
  • Alex + Chloe "Brunette" necklace -- which I promptly misplaced.  I am inconsoleable.
  • 6 French Dressing hidden scoopneck camisoles (black, white, nude, pink, green, brown)
  • PS2 SSX Snowboard game and Snowboard accessory thingie.  I can now pretend I am my hero in the comfort of my own livingroom.
  • An anthropologie giftcard.
  • Some $$, which I will spend on voodoo magic bullshit sneakers (MBTs) from Bliss.
  • Two fantastic jackets and a skirt, all three of which I love, but all three are two big for me!  Which, I suppose, is it's own gift, but kind of a bummer nonetheless.
  • A garden tool kit.
  • A coffee vacuum cannister.
  • A basket for cut flowers.
  • A shawl.
  • Some books from my wishlist.
  • A mini tripod thingie (yay!!)
  • A Rudolf nightlight of awesomeness.
  • ...a bunch of other goodies; far more than I deserved.
