Sheep

While at TNNA I spent some time in the KnitWhits booth.  Tina always does interesting designs and she loves to use Noro Yarns.  This is the Ayako Jacket.  Fantastic.  An email came from Tina last night with information about the jacket.
Ayako Jacket

Shown here in worsted weight yarn (Noro Silk Garden colour 282), this flattering design shows off the magic of ever popular self-striping yarn. This pattern is written in 6 sizes from XS to XXL and is simple enough for a new knitter but different enough to keep an experienced knitter's interest.

Can't wait for the pattern to get here-this looks like a fun one to knit.

Here is the back neck of my Jane Slicer-Smith vest.  After doing six rows with short row shaping you then cast off 10 stitches that are cast back on the next row.  Six more rows of short rows and then back to working full rows.  This lets you fold the collar down and have it sit nicely.

I placed an order in January with Lantern Moon and it finally arrived.

We now have the Sheep Tape Measure in Beige..

..and brown.
