From Susan — Aaaack!

This is what we woke up to this morning!  Egads!  I was a little worried about the drive because I have a new car and have not tested it on icy roads.  It did okay, but it was not a true test…yet. 🙁

I am progressing on my Hitofude.  Let me just reiterate what Sally already said: this pattern is brilliant in its conception and pure genius in its execution!  It is amazing how it comes together and is super fun to knit.  I highly recommend that you buy 3-4 skeins of a stunning Madtosh Light color and spend the 200 yen ($2!!) for this wonderful design.

I chose Composition Book Grey, which is a mottled gray with purplish undertones.  I love how it looks.  I think mine will fit.  Yay!!  I’ll post some pics when I get it a little farther along.

  1. Our local yarn store just got Mad Tosh Light in! And I just so happen to have bought enough balls of this + a little more. You gals are so enabling!

  2. and I uncovered four skeins of MTL in Silver Fox and am already finishing the third lace repeat (slow going when you’re making the XL) but it is lovely – just lovely – true – you two really *are* enablers!
