That's my Elann order, consisting of the Knitting Pure and Simple Neckdown Pullover and enough Plymouth Cottrica to make the sweater. I love Norma's Plain Vanilla and that's what inspired me to buy the pattern. I'm not so sure about the yarn now that it's here. It feels.... crunchy.
I'll swatch it up and see how it washes, I guess. It sure looks pretty. :)

Until May of this year, I was a redhead, and studiously avoided pink like the plague. Despite the fact that it has long been one of my favourite colours, It did not go well with coppery red hair. Now that I'm back to brunette, all I seem to buy is pink and variations thereof! :)

Today I booked tickets for myself and Em to see the Tap Dogs in May next year. It's their tenth anniversary tour, but the first time we'll have seen them. I'm looking forward to it, but not nearly so much as Em!

LOVE LOVE LOVE Tap Dogs! Hubby surprised me with tickets about 2 years ago and we went to Reno for the weekend to see them. Reno left a lot to be desired but the dawgs were AWESOME! Even hubby liked them...in fact, he liked it so much he saw Stomp in London without me! You're gonna have soooo much fun!

Thanks for visiting my blog and the compliments on my Klaralund. I'm very happy with how she turned out! You have some beautiful yarn there. :-)
