do you think my new Brooks Farm Four Play is too ‘drapey’ for this pattern?

Let’s get right to it, shall we?

The first is a Brooks Farm 50/50 wool/silk four ply.  I would like to make a sweater for myself – a basic pattern that lets the yarn do the talking.  All ideas are welcomed.

Secondly and another Brooks Farm find is Harmony, a hand dyed  wool/silk/mohair blend.  I have in mind an oversized shawl/wrap with the potential for heavy fringe.  Again, any ideas?

And lastly a Socks that Rock extravaganza.  I bought these at The Fold.

If you have cruised around Blogland you may have heard about a certain someOne who, when she was not asking wheel makers if she could feel their wood, was very busy trying to start a stampede.  And they say I’m a trouble maker?? 

This One darted amongst the crowd shouting out to any and all THEY ARE GOING TO RUN OUT OF SOCKS THAT ROCK.  GO RIGHT NOW. DUDE.  SERIOUSLY.   (my use of the word dude should indicate to you the veracity of what I am saying)  I am sure that the town of Rhinebeck will have some ordinance on the books in no time to prevent this kind of public mayhem. 

I was not immune to the rising tide of panic.  I bought enough sock yarn for a family of octopi.

Tomorrow, pictures of purchased doo-dads and what-nots.

Getting to know you,
Getting to know all about you.
Getting to like you,
Getting to hope you like me.

Getting to know you,
Putting it my way,
But nicely,
You are precisely,
My cup of tea.
