Smith
So I resisted all weekend, but today after work, I stopped at the yarn store. I just had to get the Noro Knits pattern book and the accent yarn for the Smith socks brought to my attention by Megan.
As always, this trip to the yarn store was full of twists and turns. For some reason, they don’t carry Debbie Bliss anymore. The yarn lady suggested a substitution, which I accepted: Louisa Harding Kashmir Aran (instead of Cashmerino Aran). I have also accumulated 52 points – which means I have 2 20%-off-everything shopping sprees ahead of me. Sweet!
The purple is my handspun and the yellow is the Kashmir. What do you think about the color combo, Chrissy?
I also got a Noni felted bag pattern that I’ve been eyeing for a while. It will be a Christmas present for some lucky lady.
Awesome project choice! :o) The Smiths will rock in your purple tweed! I actually love the color combo… very different, but *way* cute!

Hey Miss Sassy – you are the one who encouraged me to buy the yellow. It is actually your fault it is so perfect ;)
