I am down to my last Carnivale block, which I will do tomorrow, as I finished another one today.I finally get to see what the top will look like, and I am excited about sewing the blocks together. Yeah!!!!
I ordered wonderful batik fabrics from The Fat Quarter Shop at http://www.fatquartershop.com/ for both my Harvest Moon Wallhanging and the Miniature Landscape course that I registered for which begins on May 22nd. If you never have ordered from The Fat Quarter Shop, you definitely should. Kimberly, who owns the shop is incredible! I managed to order various shades of orange that I needed for the Harvest Moon, and she even had landscape fabrics.
I am knitting socks which are so cool, and luckily found a wonderful shop in Wicklow County, Ireland called The Yarn Room. If you go to the following link: http://www.theyarnroom.com/osc/index.php?cPath=22_171 , you will see the yarn that I am using. It is called Schoppel Wolle Sock Yarn, and I got it in Shade 1664, which you can see on that page. It is so colorful. I am using an Addi Circular Needle in 2.5mm and 100cm long perfect for this wool. I got a great dvd called Knitting Socks on a Single Circular Needle by Leslye Solomon, and you can see it at
If you ever wanted to get away from knitting socks on dpns and try knitting on one single circular needle, this dvd is for you.
I am off to watch some tv. Have a wonderful evening!
