i'm in trouble.... haha

i feel terribly sidetracked. why? because two new issues of knitterly goodness has been released, just today. i can't focus. i feel itchy to cast on something new... to get armloads of yarn for all of these projects.

oh but wait, let me actually tell you what i'm talking about!

i'm sure many of you are aware that we've been teased enough this past week by brooklyn tweed and his crew with the release of wool people 5. well geez, it's amazing. i mean, have you seen the look book? gah. so much lace and cably goodness. though i really would expect no less... i'm definitely on a shawl kick here.. just loving so many of them! i have to say though, amherst has caught my eye. i could see myself cozying up in this dress in the fall. rockin' it with some tall boots? and an uber bright coloured shawl? yeah... but i'm also loving bolt (because well it's veera. and she really doesn't ever disappoint) and there are just so many options with stripes, you know?


gah, i'm just loving them all...
and oh, did you also see that pom pom quarterly has released their summer issue? i need to knit every thing in this issue. for real. i'm loving it all!!!


and bonus, one of my friends caitlin ffrench has not one but two patterns in this issue!!!! hurrah!  so proud of her!!! and in case you were wondering, caitlin also dyes her own yarns using the coolest, and natural methods. i have a skein of hers that was dyed using onion skins. !! check out her etsy shop.

sadly, i can't get a hard copy here in canada!! sadface. but i'm on a mission ;)

guys. my queue has increased tenfold. (and then some). i'm in trouble. lol! i'm dizzy i'm so excited about all of these new patterns. i want to head to my LYS and stock up.. then drink ridiculious amounts of caffeine so that i can sit and knit non.stop.  sigh. haha i'm in love..!!!! and totally sidetracked. lol. i have to focus. ***shakes head**** ok. bring it.
it's amazing weather out. and knitting is portable. let's see what damage i can do, hey? xo

have you seen these new issues? anything you just have to knit? are you as excited as i am about these patterns? come chat! i'd love to enable chat knitterly goodness with you. ;) xo
