ohh - and I discovered something which will make me swatch...

A pattern idea, in a wrong gauge, in a wrong size, needing lots of cashmere.... but I'm in love, details later...

What happened when I looked in my stash...

Well - you see - these snuck out to get me - so some of the odessa's are going to be fingerless mitts instead - but I still should have plenty for hats too... and just because
this is what the insidses look like! (yeah - I compulsively weave ends, kinda my own home-brew of two colours, both hands and some swearing, it's been 10 years since I did it last!)

more progress on clapotis

a couple of FO's - then back to the work thing...

Meg Swansen's Mananita Magic from here
from Dryope - actually considerably more orange in person, but I could either show stitches, or good colour *sigh* - need more photo practice...

And..

I still didn't manage to take a picture of the finished felted bag... *sigh* again

very quick post...

my world is full!

I was looking at odessa (bless you Grumperina!) and my stash yelled at me - I have 16 balls of cashmere which have been waiting for a home (I think I have been hatching them for maybe 10 years now), in shades from black through greys to cream (4 balls of each) - I think 2 balls will work for this - I have 8 hats waiting to be made for gifts! - all it needed was a trip to the bead store and wheeeee...

pictures etc tomorrow - I promise!
