matchy matchy
July 23, 2009i have always refused to do matching hats. and then, last night, there was something about how soft the falkland was and something endearing about the little ball i had left… and before i knew it, this had happened.
this is an example of my shifting stripes skeins. i hadn’t knit any of these up yet and i’m super pleased with how it turned out. i’ll definitely make more of these yarns. i didn’t quite have enough yarn, so the bright pink is a bit of malabrigo chunky.
it seems that my sanity is contained in knitting with handspun during this move, so i’ll keep stealing it out of the shop. hopefully it won’t all be gone by the time we move in ;)

Ack! Your head is on fire! Oh, it’s just a super cool hat.
I love the yarn!
Hey, by the way, could you share some of your marketing tips? And did you get into Renegade? <3
i love it! so bright and cheery! (has it been a grey, rainy summer where you are?)
I like that hat. The yarn looks lovely.
So cute! Matchy-matchy was definitely the way to go in this case.
these are so sweet — the colors move so beautifully through the stitches. Do you already have some in the shop?
oh I love the way the colors shift! I can’t think of anything cuter than a shifting stripes mom and baby hat set!
Mmm… delicious…
Good luck with the move!
Enough about the hats…:) How cute is that look on your face?! I’m pinching my monitor screen!
So bright and happy, I love it!
J’adore les couleurs !

I’ve been enjoying your blog. I love this yarn, it is fantastic. I am also drooling over your patterns especially the reflections pattern. You are so talented.
thanks!
