Ohboyohboyohboy.....!!!

What treats to knit this Fall - check out both Vogue and IK Autumn previews...! They must've heard my (and others', too) complaints about bo-o-o-o-oring patterns, and really kicked up the design department - and we thank them!

Must start stretching the fingers and oiling the needles for the Great Knitting Autumn.

What?!? Socks?!?! Here?!?!?





Yes, sirree! I knit socks. I knit socks from a multi-colored yarn. I knit socks from a multi-colored yarn and like them!


These are "Spiral Boot Socks" by Véronik Avery (IK, summer '07), made from Araucanía 'Ranco' yarn (75% wool, 25% polyamide), colorway Multy (obviously..), which I bought from here on my trip to the Old Hometown a month ago.

This little piggy went to market....


..and bought some very pink linen...
and then she stayed at home and sewed herself a nice summer tunic...






















And tuned it up a bit with a discount necklace..









..and she was very happy because she cannot remember when was the last time she had sewed a piece of clothing that she could actually wear in public.
