[...] Before I close for today, I have contest prizes to award. The voting is in for the First Quarter KAL. The Reader’s Choice award goes to Samantha, who knit the Tiefer Sea Clapotis. The randomly drawn winner is Allen for her Meat and Three Clapotis. (I like how both colorways rhyme with the pattern: Tiefer Sea, Meat & Three, Clapotis…) Both winners received a Loopy Ewe Gift Certificate. Thanks to ALL of you who participated in that KAL! I hope you’re all picking out Challenge Socks for this quarter’s Challenge. [...]

I love lilacs and old houses. Sigh. I’d be feeling very bittersweet too. (But not the invasive kind!)

May I create my own pattern? I’ll make it seriously a pain in the neck, I promise.

I just ordered the HJ Aran Clog Socks and the Louet Bright Red to knit them with. I’ve never tried a sock with a pattern so hopefully this isn’t too hard. I have done cables before though. I’m excited!

Oooooo…those Lilacs are beautiful!!! Speaking of purple I have decided to use my Yoyo String and Fluff in the People Eater colorway for the 2nd quarter challenge. I plan on using it to make Monkey by Cookie A. Seeing as I have only knit 1sock of a pair in a pattern before this(tidalwave pattern) , then this will definitely be a challenge for me.

Now if you could figure out some way to get a smell button manufactured on my computer, that would be great! Mmmmm, lilacs!

I’m thinking about making some mosaic socks using light blue and black Aracaunia yarns, or that ever beautiful (but techinal) Bayerische Socks by Eunny Jang. Hmmm….tough decision.
