New Yarn!

        I just received the most wonderful present ever! A bag of Squishy, Gorgeous yarn!( the BEST kind)
 


This Gorgeous package is from Gnome Acres. She is a hand dyer, and does Beautiful work i may add!
Here is a link to her Etsy store. I have my eye on several skeins, and cannot wait to see the new colors.

My first Skein is a Superwash merino, nylon mix in the Hulk Smash color. It is a fingering sock weight and has 462 yards. I am going to be knitting the My Hope Pattern out of this. This is by Laura Linneman. She is part of my Favorite Podcast The Knit Girllls! All I need to do is pick up some beads.


These Little beauties are part of the Halloween Mini Skein bundle. which comes with 7 mini skeins with 20+  yards. which is enough for several different projects. I don't know which one I want to knit.


I love these colors! I think I will order the Witches Brew (far left). I love the colors.


I will Definitely order from her again. Her colors are beautiful and the yarn is so squishy, soft, and Gorgeous!
I Can't wait to go to my LYS, wind this and Cast on!

A blog...Really? Well why not....

So i give in. It's time for a blog. My head is always filled with thoughts, questions, and plain awesomeness. So why not.. I am still on Twitter, but now i can share my larger thoughts here too. While were at it here's my Ravelry name..

Do you have on of those days where everything you read is in Japanese? I have read This pattern 10 times now, and for some reason my brain seems to scream WTH is this Japanese?!?! the simple process of words was just not making any connection with my brain... So what better way then check Youtube for help. Finally I have an, um ookkaayy.. moment and reread it and have that magical Ahhaaa moment, where angles sing and bright white light appears, And i ask myself WTH was so hard with that? A 6 year old could have understood that! So i am chalking it up to a Sunday Lazy day brain farts. So Thanks to This my Aahaa moment was achieved. I feel so much smarter. :-)

Here's to an awesome Monday!
