A New Book
I have really been trying not to buy a whole bunch of yarn and knitting books, since I have so much that I would like to work with.
But I took a look at the new Teva Durham book Loop-d-Loop and was absolutely blown away. If you click on the link you can see a bunch of the designs from the book--including the one that is featured in the Summer Interweave Knits and the curly corkscrew scarf from Scarf Style. The designs are clever and fun, and all of the designs are knit in chunky knits for fast finished products. While I am not hip enough to wear some of them (the cowl collar, say), some of them are ones that I want now. I love this summer T top:
The book uses some more expensive yarns, but there are a lot of reasonable priced yarns, including the Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece for the T top.
