On Toward Spring

I finished the kid's sweater I was working on. I am taking it to Camas Creek today so that Melanie's husband Andy can get a picture of their darling granddaughter modeling it. I like how the sweater turned out, and I think it would be great in an adult version, too. For now, though, I am moving on to some warmer-weather designs. But it may be in the queue for fall.

Has anyone heard how or if the spike in cotton prices is going to affect cotton yarn prices? We may not see the effects until next year, but I have been wondering to myself if I should stockpile some cotton yarns now.

I started a design out of some Sublime Organic Cotton last night and I like it. I like it so much that I had to force myself to put it down and go to bed. That's always a good sign.

It's been a long seven days of subbing. I am looking forward to having my life back again. And maybe I'll have something more interesting to blog about than head lice (the good news is that we seem to have eradicated the infestation, yay).
