:: curing ::



Last Saturday though painful but came with some goodies in the mail. The new IK Summer 2007 was somewhat disappointing, besides this beautiful lace Oriel Blouse nothing really took my breath away, especially it is made with that one of my favorite yarn by now Alchemy Silken Straw..

As for Habu goodness, I should thank Twisted Knitter Janet for this scrumptious swap, it's one cone of Navy Silk Swapped Stainless Steel A-20 and Navy Fine Merino A-34.. I haven't decided what to make out of it yet, but ideas as well as knitting it probably will have to wait till I am done with a secret project, that's taking longer than I expected, but I hope soon I will be able catch up updating the patterns and knit myself some sooo needed summer tops or a dress?!!

I had ideas choking me at night, but I still stick to the plan and keep knitting what I am knitting, talk self-discipline.. I think if I had visited MSWF it wouldn't have gone THAT well there..

Thank you all for your kind wishes, I am feeling better now, it took some days, because this bug has been massive. Phew..no more restaurant food for a while probably!

Yes, that lace blouse is beautiful. I also like the Lutea Lace Shell and Nora Gaughan's web project the Bella Blouse.

Glad you're feeling better. Any possibilities of hints on who/what the secret project is for? I'm so curious! :)

Glad you're on the mend -- good thing you had the lovely Habu to keep you company as you recovered. :)

Thanks a lot for making me wonder if one could make that pretty lace top in what I think of as lace weight and others think of as thread... :-P

That top is pretty. I forgot to renew my subcription, maybe I will wait until my library has it...

Glad you are feeling better. Sick Olgita is too sad!

Beautiful blues… I am sure you'll come up with a wonderful project for them. :)

Janet is the Habu Queen isn't she? :) Your little bag is gorgeous - is that Chanel fabric?? I swear I saw 2 interlocking CCs at the front!

I'm working on your package right now!

Glad you're feeling better.
