I have joined a yarn club -the BareNaked Knitspot which will keep me supplied in wooly goodness for the next seven months or so. Last year's club, also hosted by
Knitspot's Anne Hansen was how I knitted all of my Christmas gifts. This season the focus is on undyed extremely lovely yarn and the first installment is not a disappointment. So I am off on another knitting adventure.
Isn't it funny how knitters and quilters all love project bags. This one is from
Three Bags Full on Etsy and they were made for the club in beautiful neutrals to match our yarn. The wool is the softest merino -from the American West,
Mountain Meadow Wool, and it will be for a baby blanket. It has already provided me with knitting delight. My only regret is that I do not want to take it onto the train and get it germified, so I am knitting it exclusively at home.

My plan was to make toile from the image from the post office mural-a work in progress...click for full picture which I 'stitched' together on my iPhone.
