So here are the progress notes on the knitting --
I am nearly finished with the first clue for the GoddessKnits Spring stole. I is going to be as light as air when finished because this cashmere is so fine. And knit, the color is even more delicate than in the skein. This photo doesn't catch the beads very wel, but they are there in abundance.
I got a draft of the center motif for Medea charted last night. I am not ready to knit that part but it has felt important to me to work out the charts. I am so in love with this color!
In fact I like this color so much, I have it in three other yarns -- all from Colourmart as well. Just today I received enough of it in DK silk/cotton to make a nice summer sweater. I have blue yarns and greens, but my eye always travels first to the red. And this, which hasn't even a hint of orange to it, is my very favorite.
The boats continue to arrive -- today there are 4 --
