caution. i've lost my mind. turn back.

remember this 
go ahead
check it out
i'll wait...


yeah, well, all that
swooning
and drooling
over
and that


the habu came in.

here, let me show you
a little somethin' somethin'

see that mulberry colored yarn
yep, not kiddin' that's y.a.r.n.
oh, remember my cryin' bout
how itsy bitsy it was
how hard it was to see
how long freakin' forever
it would take to work with
blah, blah, blah

well, lets look at somethin'
down here...



so, here's a little comparison
see that black rope yarn
well that's the super bulky yarn
i typically work with
see how itsy~freakin'~bitsy the mulberry is?
go ahead,
take that in for a minute...

scary, eh?
that's nothin'
lookie here...


get out your flippin' magnifying glass
see that little white thinner~than~thread thing
come closer...squint if you have to
that white thinner~than~thread string is the
habu silk stainless y.a.r.n
that i've been
mindlessly unwittingly coveting

if i try to knit that
kusha kusha
i'm likely to
lose
my
mind...
eyesight, too.

stay tuned to see if i actually attempt this feat 
which is 
nothing~short~of~lunacy crazy ridiculous
for the 
instant~gratification~girl
that's me.

but its still oh, so pretty...

i bid you
happy stitches,
Beth

on my needles.

the inspiration


it was these sleeves and that neckline that got me.


I'm half way through the neck of
the deep breath sweater by Kirsten Hipsky in
this alpaca silk blend yarn in mulberry.
so far, so good.

Good news...
remember this recent project?
well, it's been sent off for approval and hopefully I can share the details soon.

Better news...
remember this swooning?
well,
i just scored this
and will be able to start this

Kusha Kusha scarf very soon!
all in all, a very fine day.

what's on your needles?

happy stitches,
Beth

Kusha Kusha Scarf...I want.






Doesn't matter which colorway you choose, I love this scarf.  It's knitted up with Habu Textiles Superfine Merino Wool (which is felted)along with Habu Textiles Silk Stainless Steel yarn (which doesn't felt).
The combination of the two is gorgeous.
happy stitches,
Beth
