Waiting for a little Silver to cross my palm
Well, dear readers, I hope you didn't think that I dropped off the face of the planet. I am having pop up trouble and using the internet has been a pain, to say the very least. Ha ha. Anyway, I have finished the back of my sweater and have started the right front. Yeah. It looks pretty good so far. I will take a picture and post it soon.
I also made three scarves. Two for my sister and one for a friend. I took pictures of the friends scarf as it came out very pretty. It was the first time I knitted two yarns together. I used Debbie Bliss Silk Alpaca and this cute fuzzy purple yarn from Moda Dea. Dream in plum. Very cute. I love the Debbie Bliss yarn. Too bad it is so expensive. I think I would only knit with that yarn for the rest of my life. Ha Ha.
And I ordered some yarn, Bernat silk, in Sterling, a silver color. For a sweater I want to make. I bought this cute pattern booklet from Leisure Arts, with like 4 or 5 sweaters in it that I would want to make. And they all use worsted weight yarn. There is a cute wrap sweater, a jacket with a pleat on the back, a ribbed sweater, and scoop neck pullover, that I would make and several others that I wont. The sweater I will make first(the ribbed sweater) used the Bernat silk in Sterling, and it looked so pretty, I decided to use exactly what they used. This is rare for me, as I usually hate the color or the yarn they use. Lets hope this turns out well. I am tracking the package. LOL. In anticipation.
I will post a picture of what it should look like when I am done. So stay tuned folks, the best is yet to be. Keep knitting with a smile on your face. Bye for now.

I'm not familliar with Bernat silk. You'll have to tell us what it's like. The colour itself already sounds glorious... I can't wait to see it. :)
