Eil...Thanks for the compliments, Lori and imogene!<br /><br />Eileen, we SHOULD INDEED hang out. Knitting while being cooked for is basically my favourite activity.<br /><br />I am totally fascinated by Detroit. And it is now within day-tripping distance! But I think it might be a little weird to take a trip specifically to look at crumbling buildings. Fortunately pretty buildings in Detroit have been extensively photographed and posted on the internet. It BLOWS MY MIND that the Guardian Building is actually a building where you could, like, <i>have an office</i>. Where I am from they build things on the cheap and tear them down to replace them every twenty years, so most things never last long enough to be interesting in that way.<br /><br />Elka, the yarn is worth ordering just to try it out, but it's awfully weird! Too many guard hairs to be soft. I have a high scratchiness tolerance but this yarn pushes it to its limit. However, it's so absurdly warm that it is kind of worth it.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15272061485635303993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669086270313229382.post-61135986168351004972010-09-30T06:32:36.111-07:002010-09-30T06:32:36.111-07:00I love that Taiga swatch...

man, the guardian building is exciting. ...yaaay! <br /><br />man, the guardian building is exciting. that's detroit: thousands of ruins of both regular midwestern boardy houses, and then ruins of buildings like that. and occaisonally a few preserved buildings like that. <br /><br />ALSO: you and I need to hang out sometime, lady. you can knit things and I will cook things and it will be just fine.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952359002744629140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669086270313229382.post-7395869299661550032010-09-29T16:39:27.957-07:002010-09-29T16:39:27.957-07:00definitely loving the art deco mosaic vibe. what a...definitely loving the art deco mosaic vibe. what a cool source of inspiration!imogenehttp://stingingneedle.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669086270313229382.post-80176822131285503962010-09-29T12:36:00.900-07:002010-09-29T12:36:00.900-07:00I just popped by from Knitty and I am in AWE of yo...I just popped by from Knitty and I am in AWE of your beautiful pieces in progress! The 3 color stranded snippet is gorgeous and makes me feel anxious in that I want to attempt it but fear I would end up frustrated in the knitting attempt. (having not attempted 3 colors in a row! eep!)<br /><br />Regardless, I love the gloves in Knitty and think i'll give them a go. I've never attempted gloves before and they look like what I would like to wear.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09114062607610314946noreply@blogger.com
