In scarf news, the yarn store near where I get me haircut was having their annual 40% off all yarns in stock one-day sale. AD and bb's scarves are well underway but I keep reimagining Tilly's. For at least the third time I've bought some pink yarn with Tilly's scarf in mind. This time though, I think it will stick. Hope you like it. And way back when I promised them in time for Christmas '09 so, actually, I'm right on schedule.
wilson, don't hold your breath, but Christmas '10 isn't out of the question.
In other scarf news, I have a friend at work who is moving to Germany to further her opera career. Her last day is tomorrow. I found out she was leaving last Wednesday. I issued myself the challenge of knitting a scarf in a week. She's getting a chunky yarn scarf with a very simple stitch pattern but I am nearly done. It's a varigated yarn, supersoft, big needles, but, horrors(!), it's a wool/acrylic blend. Yes, I'm a yarn snob, but I will admit, sometimes acrylic is just the thing.
The time is out of joint, O cursed spite!
