Distractions

Why, yes! I am trying to distract you from the distinct lack of knitting content today. I've not so much as cast on for another square, nor have I swatched any of the fine new yarn I got recently. I have no good excuses... just somehow they days slithered through my fingers and I found myself here at Wednesday, without a stitch. I guess it happens sometimes.

I was quite excited yesterday to open my mailbox and find the Summer issue of Interweave! I like many of the projects in this issue, most notably the Marseilles Pullover, Cambridge Jacket, and Eyelet Chemise. The baby cardigan set is so cute, I wish someone I know would become pregnant so I could make one. I am also intrigued by the use of plastic canvas in Veronik Avery's bag, and I love the resulting shape.

Anyone else subscribe and have opinions?

I don't subscribe to Interweave (too lazy) but from all I am hearing about this issue, I can't wait until Barnes & Noble gets it in! (maybe I'll go stalk them again today).

That eyelet chemise is CUTE. Maybe I should get my hands on a copy of this issue!

The eyelet chemise is my favourite, closely followed by the Cambridge jacket.
