I have had a little time to play today. Well deep procrastination once again gives Michelle time to play. Well sort of play. I have been procrastinating dying this yarn for fear of messing it up. But there is a deadline and that deadline is slowly approaching.

Three different reds, a bit of turquoise and black - I really hope this concoction works.

I’m going for the color of the couch at the Muddy Cup which we often sit upon during our knit-nights. It’s not burgandy, yet it’s not pure red. It’s like a cherry burgandy red if that makes any sense.

The yarn is Henry Attics Andromeda a silk/merino blend. One day soon it will become a beatiful (hopefully) camisole/tank for a dear loved one.

   Keeping my fingers crossed that it works out! Okay, my toes, since my fingers are kinda needed to knit. ;)

   I FEEL LOVED! :)

   Sweetie, whatever color it comes out, so long as it’s not electric hot pink, I will be thrilled. And in fact, I don’t care if it’s olive green, the fact that you (and Jaya) are working so hard on wonderful hand knitted gifts means so much to me.

   *hugs*

   We missed you last night!

   Thanks so much for visiting and your nice comment. After reading your profile, I can see why you like my vest. We seem to have the same color issues :D.

   I’m hoping to submit my level I work this week. I’m just waiting for a question to be answered on TKGA message board. I’d be happy to offer you any support I can. I’ll be more helpful once I get feedback on my submission.
