Yesterday met Sanhita from B'lore and it was a really wonderful meeting, sadly it was late and we both needed to return to our respective places


well we swapped yarn and needles.I had requested her to get me silk yarn and i am soooooo happy today, kids are at school, i have half a day to myself and i can admire my new yarn :)



the color is something i don't have, and can wait to start something on this, i have so many patterns on wish list to make, and i plan to make a heirloom kind of a thing :) lots of lace work coming up.

then i pulled out some cotton to make a doily, this is the one, its in three colors and i plan to make a small swatch, very small one, it pays to make a swatch, but i am so lazy, keep risking and then frogging the whole project




this is wat i plan to make out of the cotton above



BUT not before i finish at least two of the four projects which arte on needles. so i plan to finish ones which would finish fastest. top town cardi are addicting and one is almost a day or two from finishing,

( i have no idea why the pic has ccome rotated ..... if anyone knows how to correct this,help me )



and this one will go faster than the above one, as its on thicker needles. I want to finish the stash i have for this one so i shall first do the sleeves and then the body to that i don't end up with extra yarn, which will again go into stash of one or half balls of yarns of different yarn age.



BTW i have finished the LANA GROSSA Model of the Month,September 2008 jacket, pic will be uploaded soon, gave it to dry cleaner, the weather here in Delhi wouldn't have let it dry up fast as it is thicker and we don't have good sun now a days.

I made it without sleeves and its come out nice. gotta try it at least once this season asap coz its gonna get warmer and i will have to wait for next season.
