However, this post is about something else completely. As a reward to myself for finishing up a pretty major (non-knitting) project, I went to Lettuce Knit for some goodies.
First up, some lovely sock yarn.
Koigu is always a crowd-pleaser.
I really liked the sparkly bits in this Dream in Color Starry.
And lastly, some lovely Dream in Color Classy.
The sock yarn is actually going to be for socks. The Classy is going to be for something else, which I'll likely write about soon.
Remember way back when I ranted about losing some socks and patterns? Well, almost 2 years after losing it, guess what I found?
Tah dah! The pattern that I couldn't find no matter where I looked! Haha! Funny how things pop out of the wood work!
Lastly, and this will probably only interest Adrienne, but I'm gonna write about it anyway. Did any of you happen to notice the unfamiliar piece of furniture that I've been photographing all my new stash on? It's something that arrived at our house just last month after a lot of heel dragging on my part.
Yup, the Chang family piano has now arrived at the Chang-Wells home. I was really excited about it, and have actually played it a few times since it's gotten here. Jamie tells me that it's possible to hear it a bit on the outside, so I'm a little self conscious about playing now. I'm so out of practice that I actually want to start out by playing scales and exercises again, and that'll probably be really boring for other people to listen to. Oh well.

Your new yarn is gorgeous. The Starry looks intriguing! I'm excited to see what you make out of all of these :)
Hehehe...Yarn rewards are always good. That Starry was very enticing at Lettuce Knit, but I really have too much stashed away. And yup, I too gotta get back to that blanket we're knitting - I finished that middle square though, so the hard part's starting. But also, this past week I got a request that I could not ignore and had to knit up asap. Hope all is going well!
