I keep changing my mind about Charlotte's Web. Half the time I look at the shawls and think they are wonderful. That's what I want for my bday. The other half of the time I think nope I won't wear it. I will work on it, enjoy it, admire it and put it in the back of the closet but never wear it. By the way the colorway Lichen at Threadbear is wonderful, but it's gone. I would have broken down for that colorway.
Oh and I do feel old. My mom being the generous person she is bought me some R2 Rag. Now, I usually love Rowan but I was less than enthusiastic about this yarn. It is a very heavy yarn and the color was an institiutional gray. So I thought, if I put the yarn on my desk where I can admire it the rag will grow on me. WRONG WRONG WRONG. I hated that yarn. This is the FIRST time I took yarn back and traded it in on Calmer for Audrey. The designs weren't anything I would actually wear in public for that yarn and it was so heavy and blah I didn't want to play with anything of my own. Anybody else out there have a similar reaction? Oh and don't worry I wasn't that blunt to my mom, because it was very generous of her to even think of me when she's yarn shopping.
Still progressing on Smooch. I promise to get pictures up by this weekend.
I also need to work on the site. I need to put up all of the references that I use all the time.

Have fun with the Audrey! I really want to work with the Calmer but haven't found a sweater that really flutters my putter yet.
