kitty: HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Happy Halloween!!!!

Tentou Mushi on a Thursday

Tentou Mushi...

Ladybug, Ladybug, fly away home....
your house is on fire, and your children will burn.
Except little Nan, who sits in a pan,
weaving gold laces as fast as she can!

Pattern:Thursday by Kirsten Johnstone
Fiber: 4 cones - Habu Textiles A-1 2/17 Tsumugi Silk

I thought it was insanely appropriate that the little ladybug landed on the golden sweater. She didn't want to leave until I made a wish and blew gently.

I truly loved this pattern. Kirsten did a really beautiful job with the design and the write up of the pattern. The sleek architectural lines and gentle folds of fabric really made me fall in love with the original design.

kitty: fiber goodness

Sorry to be so quiet... I have real knitting to actually post, but I will leave you with some fiber shots until then.

Miss you all
