Other things that are distracting me from A&S...knitting

[ianuk]

So, I have this fascination with socks right now. I personally love socks in general...I think its my north upbringing and I've been fascinated with the knitting of socks since I started listen to podcasts in march. But I knew I wanted to learn to crochet first so I've done that, I think I'm pretty good at the basics and I can follow a pattern...socks keep tempting me. The girls at knit night tease me about not knitting yet and further tease me that I say "Oh, I'll learn in october!" which if you've been paying attention is after A&S. See, knitting will be my pat on the back you've done something big and happy and survived, here learn something else.

So I've been enhancing my stash a bit but today, while reading The Yarn Harlot I found out that Socks that Rock (STR) has an entire RAVEN CLAN colorway!!! OMG SQUEE!!! I stopped writing on my report and had to paw through the website to admire the lusciousness of it and I don't even knit socks let alone anything else yet! GAH!

So, I sit and ponder yarn and get back to reports and regurgitating details. Sigh, yarn.

I do rather like the korppi one. Just that hint of purple is nifty!

I *LOVE* the Yarn Harlot... which I read faithfully (and have read all the archives)... and I =still= don't knit. :)
