...even though the LAST thing I need is to start another project!! But I got tired of looking at the beige --er, linen yarn of the Sampler Afghan (and I need to start looking through the box of completed squares to see which ones I've done, since, with sixty patterns, it's easy to lose track), and went out to Michael's and JoAnn's to find the Wool-Ease colors for the Tumbling Blocks. I guess I just want to try my hand at Intarsia. Of course neither store had even half the colors I need, and Lion Brand hasn't responded to my e-mail on that subject...fortunately for my blood pressure, Lion Brand foolishly e-mailed its customers a satisfaction survey. Boy am I going to have fun filling THAT one out.
I thought of a way to figure out how to change the colors if I ever try the tumbling blocks again; I'm sure I could do something with graphics on the computer to substitute different color families...
What's the matter with my attention span?!?
Oh...and while I was at JoAnn's, I fell for the Red Heart Luster Sheen Sport Weight in "Autumn" -- I grabbed it to make the "Los Lobe Hose" sock earrings I couldn't resist in the last Patternworks catalog! The name alone hooked me (I adore puns).
Now to figure out how long a length of Wool-Ease I need to cast on 160 sts...
