Being a true Knitter, there was no way I was going to miss an excuse to buy yarn. So I batted my eyelashes at my husband and asked if we could make a stop at an Orlando yarn shop. He agreed, and we commenced our shopping at The Knitting Patch. So. Much Beautiful. Yarn! It seemed like every other yarn I pulled out to look at was Hedgehog Fibers, so obviously my soul needed some – I bought 2 skeins of sock yarn in “Nutmeg.”
My husband and I wrote some funy vows for each other – one of my vows was to knit for him – whether he liked it or not. So I convinced him to pick out some yarn for me to knit him a hat. He showed good taste by choosing Zauberball.
And lastly, in the sale bin a lonely skein of Colinette Cannelloni called my name. And I couldn’t resist. She is so bright and happy (and I have no idea what I will knit with her, but that is not the point).
The yarns you picked are gorgeous – every time I see hedgehog fibers yarn I wanna buy it all. The Zauberball (yay, German yarn!) your husband picked is gorgeous. Did you already pick a pattern for his hat?
Thank you! I’m using this pattern for his hat: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/2×2-ribbed-for-his-pleasure
