Those two balls of yarn? I dyed those over the weekend. They didn't end up the same shade. And I'm okay with that. Turns out that my dye jar just isn't big enough for two skeins of bare Wool of the Andes. Oh well. Lesson learned. My step-mother wound them on her ball winder. I love the way they look. If I had the contraptions necessary, you can be sure all my balls of yarn would be neat and stackable like these!
Right now I'm knitting some more longies. I'm using the Kanoko Pants pattern on Ravelry again. With luck these will fit the Beast. They look tiny, so I expect they will. I'm using Wool of the Andes in Cobblestone Heather. As though I'm a Knit Picks ad, I'm also using the Harmony wood interchangeable needles that my step-mother gave me for Christmas.
And of course I'm reading another book in the Pink Carnation series - The Betrayal of the Blood Lily by Lauren Willig.
I just got back from the library with the Temptation of the Night Jasmine. I didn't have time to figure out which was first with one heading for the videos and the other trying to take off the books off the shelves in between my glances. You have mentioned them so often I thought I would give it a try, thanks!
ReplyDeleteLynnette: The first book is The Secret History of the Pink Carnation. And then (2)Masque of the Black Tulip, (3)Deception of the Emerald Ring, (4)Seduction of the Crimson Rose, (5)Temptation of the Night Jasmine, (6)Betrayal od the Blood Lily, (7)Mischief of the Mistletoe, and (8)The Orchid Affair (coming out this month!)
ReplyDeleteI hope you like them! (:
Thank you for the list! I guess I'm reading one out of order but I don't think our library has them all so that will happen anyway. :)
