Hello....I had a wonderful surprise on my porch yesterday. I am a huge longhorn fan (University of Texas) and their main color is burnt orange....so most of the things I make are in a burnt orange or saffron or somewhere near that color. Many of my friends know that I love this color.....so this is what was on my porch yesterday!
Yup! 10 beautiful skeins of perfect orange berroco ultra alpaca! YUMMY! Thank you BJ!
I finished my Kindle Cover (BTW, this yarn was also gifted to me from a friend and she bought it just because of the color....she calls burnt orange "Carrie Orange"):
Well, I go on vacation tomorrow....I cannot wait...only 3 days and 2 nights, but it is a much needed vacation! I am taking way too many projects with high hopes, so we will see how it goes.
These are the projects I am taking:
Lumberjack to make some socks for Antonio, my grandson, in burnt orange and off white.
Leftie for Camp Loopy #3 (I cannot believe I have not started this yet)
Daisy Love Test Blanket for ravellenics and for the tesk knit of course
and just in case I get really ambitious....I am also taking the honey cowl.
Sunday will be the closing Ceremonies for the Ravellenics at my LYS, Yarnivore! Wish me luck that I win something ;)
Here is a cute pic I found on Facebook....One day I WILL get a knitting related tatoo...I am just not sure what or where yet!
Happy Wednesday everyone....I will probably not be back for a few days!
That is a great surprise!! I have a knitting tatoo...for a long time now, way before it was cool! ha ha
