For Week of Few Words. I really lost my focus today. I can’t seem to get the idea of making a particular hat out of my head. All I can think about is the yarn I want to buy, and the fine-gauge loom I’d need to really do it right. I barely managed to tear myself away for the time it took to:
Pack orders.
Bring A to E’s school so he could read to E’s class.
Ship orders.
Oh, ok. So I gave in to the yarn thing. I had 45 minutes to kill while taxiing a child around, and a yarn shop nearby 😀
Tomorrow will be more productive. Really.
Why is it we always want to do something that requires something we don’t already have??? I guess it’s the challenge. No challenge = no fun.
But that *IS* some lovely yarn……!! 😀

Good thing you’re only making small things — the one time I used Malabrigo, I had trouble because the skeins did not have the same shade even though they were the same dye lot, so the finished sweater looked weird. Just a cautionary note if you should ever start doing projects that require multiple skeins in the future: hand-dyed yarn is notorious for not being consistent even when the dye lots are the same.
