Off to Oz

I am off to Oz today! I'll arrive in Sydney about 24 hours after I leave Philly, which means I will miss February 9th and will arrive on February 10th.

I can't wait to escape the cold and snow, and most of all to see Simon!

I will post pics and updates on my adventures while down under.

My First Sweater Design!


Here it is! My first sweater design with multiple sizes. I absolutly loved designing this sweater and knitting it. The yarn was amazing, I used Mirasol Project's Tupa, which is a 50/50 wool silk blend. The colors that it comes in are amazing.

I just posted the pattern in my etsy shop and on Ravelry. Check it out if you want more info on the pattern.

Simon has been away for a week now and my days here in Philly are moving, I'm not sure yet if they are moving quickly but the are moving. It is now down to 16 days before I fly out from Philly. I'm getting excited and can't wait to see Simon and meet his family, not to mention be in warm weather.

Tidal Pool

I just listed this beautiful aqua blue sock yarn in my etsy shop. I love this color, it came out beautiful on the hank of wool. I look forward to seeing it off to knitter or crocheter who loves this color as much as I do. Check out my shop for more info

Cornflower Blue


Here is a pic of my current project.

It's an adult variation on an Elizabeth Zimmerman baby sweater by Pamela Wynne. I'm calling it my February Oz Trip Sweater.

Simon's Last Day

Today is Simon's last day here in the states for awhile.
We finished up a lot of paper work for his visa and ran errands.

We've been running around seeing friends almost every night since Sunday and I am exhausted. I'm going to miss him once I drop him off at the airport tomorrow.
