Episode 9 - The One with the Blubbering, Somber Penguin









What’s OFF the needles! The Wedge has a second heel!: (Cookie A Knit. Sock. Love. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wedge-2) in Little Red Bicycle Snowflake Sock colorway Cherry Blossom on size 1 ½ 2.5 mm Hiya Hiya Sharps. http://www.ravelry.com/projects/knitterlybooklady/wedge

What’s on the needles -  
Wonder Woman Vanilla Socks got love, but is waiting for some measurements – my own pattern. Yarn is Gnome acres House Gnome in Wonder Woman on US 1.5 2.5 mm Addi Turbos bought in GA.

Elizabeth Zimmerman’s Basic Pie Shawl – Pattern from The Knitter’s Almanac. Yarn from Abstract Fiber Matisse (100% SW BFL) in their Seattle colorway. Size US 2 (2.75 mm) Hiya Hiya Sharp needles.

Pointelle – Pattern is from Cookie A’s Knit. Sock. Love book (I promise, last one!). Yarn from Lisa Souza Sock! Merino in Berry Poppin Colorway. Size US 1 (2.25 mm) Hiya Hiya Sharp needles.

What’s on the Nails – OPI Stay the Night Liquid Sand.  Definitely top coat thirsty. Not digging the texture thing.

I also did my own galaxy/star manicure with OPI Black Onyx, Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Black and Blue, Julep Camille, and Julep Candy. 

Book talk –  None for this week because there is a lack of inspiration there.  

 My wish List – For nail polish: Enchanted Polish - http://shop.llarowe.com/collections/enchanted-polish

For yarn: Biscotte & Cie Felix (Self-striping) http://www.theloopyewe.com/shop/g/yarn/biscotte-cie/

Etc etc etc – Knitters and TFIMP’ers are the best: Sally Hanson Complete Salon Manicure in Mermaid’s Tale, Zoya Envy, and Barielle Shades in Decadence. More swatching in my future!
Thank you for your patience with me while I go and take care of unexpected things. Hopefully I will be back to my normal recording schedule.
