Glitz and Glam

Bead purists would probably call it cheating....

But I do not care.

I'm having flashbacks to my glitzy Boston days. It was the 80's. Sequins and beads were big.
As was our hair.

I had to put it away before I got drool all over it. And then I took it out again.

I may not have remembered which site I saw it on when I told you about it...but when it came time to order it, I was spot on!

That's the Tilli Tomas from Kpixie. I am in love.

I know exactly what it is going to be.
It agrees wholeheartedly.


I have dug my claws into summer, and refuse to let it go.

Because I really like a challenge.

My determination is manifesting itself in color choice.

Here's a little something I started yesterday.

Huh, what do you know? Same blue.

This sucker is flying off my needles. I know! When's the last time you heard me say THAT??

But I'm very nearly done with the front, and when I find the camera card, I'll show you.

  2. I LOVE that Tilli Thomas yarn. I haven't purchased any yet. I don't wear scarves and can't think what else could be done with it.

    BUT, I adore it EVERY time I go to the yarn shop!
