Blast from the past

Churchmouse Yarns released a free pattern yesterday and I knew exactly what yarns I was going to knit it in. I'm using Rowan Brushed Fleece, Blue Sky Brush Suri and Bibi from Borgo de Pazzi. I didn't get very far but I like how the colours are working together.

This is Churchmouse's sample. We don't have a yarn with sequins but maybe you have one in your stash that would work.
A shallow, garter-stitch triangle, this free pattern is a breeze to knit! Long, tapered ends offer tons of styling and tying options, while an eyelet edging adds interest. Three-color stripes shine in this scarf’s clean simplicity. We’ve added a bit more magic with three different yarns—one sparkly, one fuzzy, and one fluffy! 
We knit the Easy Three-Yarn Striped Triangle Scarf with three chunky-weight yarns, with each garter-stitch row knit in a different yarn. 

Another yarn that would work with the Brushed Fleece and Brushed Suri is Bamboo Bloom.
A loosely spun burst of wool is blended with bamboo's beautiful sheen for a fascinating texture. Elegance made easy!
I received an email from our friends at Spincycle Yarns that more yarn is on the way. We will have more Dyed in the Wool next week.

A blast from the past
Lisa who runs my dad's office found this picture yesterday. Everyone is lining up for cookies from my dad and Lori (who works in the office). Melo is right in front of my dad and Roko is next in line. Sammy is on the right and Shiv is the really white golden who is the farthest away. Cooper is the little guy behind Roko. You can't miss Lucy. All four Goldens are gone now so the office is very quiet. Wait until tomorrow when Lucy is back.
