More knittin’ and more sewin’?? I found some cute spring fabric at Blue Bamboo and a skein of yarn in my stash that ties the whole thing Newsom together. More work but twice the fun!
And in response to Grace who thought my dryer technique took nerves of steel — it was necessity and nothing more. It could not be blocked when it was SO big!!
PS – Several of you asked what I will be making with the fabric. I will probably make a dress I can wear to work, though the blouse idea is a good one!! The skein of fingering weight yarn will probably end up as some kind of “Trillian“-like scarf. It needs to be something that works well with variegated yarn.
What are your plans? Blouse and scarf? That orange is a big color now, I’ve heard 😉

Ooh, nice fabric! I’ve got a thing for yellow & that saffron color together. They’re so gorgeous. I’m curious to see what the final product will be.

Serious love for the fabric. Now that DS is at Hamline, I get to Treadle Yard Goods more often. Got another favorite fabric store?
