I know, I know.  I’m supposed to be finishing projects, not starting new ones.  But here’s just a little peek at something I’m experimenting with…

I’ve had it in my head that I want to work on designing my own pattern. I have a pretty good idea of what I want to make but I’m experimenting with mixing in some cables from the stitch dictionaries in my library:

I just got my copy of The Vogue Stitchionary Volume Two: Cables in the mail today. It’s beautiful. I’d only flipped through the first two pages of the “Easy” cables section when I started exclaiming to Nick how amazing the book is. (Surprisingly, he thought it was pretty cool too…) Now I want to get the other two volumes on color knitting and various knit/purl patterns.
Anyway, not sure when (or if) my attempt at design will be ready for primetime, but I’ll post it here when it is.
