11-15 june, 2007
I'm taking 5 days off from swatching as I prepare a secret item for Friday's Knitty submission deadline. I'll give you a hint, what I'm submitting was swatched here when it was cold and rainy.

Hmmm....back in March (which might have been cold and rainy), when you made your mini Gansey, you mentioned wanting to design yourself a traditional, yet modern version. You were talking about making it in the Fall, but this submission would be for the Fall issue of knitty. Hmmm...I wonder. Well, whatever it is, Good Luck!

Baby blankie?
...and since I've nver commented before, thank you so much for the insipring work of daily swatching...I've almost convinced myself to take the plunge!

Holy cow, you've engineered the Sidewinders and you're composing a Knitty submission? Yep, Your my knitting hero!

Miss you already.

Maybe a short row log cabin afghan sort of thing? But taken way beyond the confines of what is normal, Nona-ified, and made utterly wonderful.

I am so freakin' curious! I think you should have submitted the Sidewinders to Knitty, but I am glad you didn't, so I don't have to wait that long. I started my gauge swatch last night!

I've tried to compose a witty limerick to convey how much I miss your swatches...but really I'd become an addict and need my swatch-fix: no laughing matter! Hope you're back swatching soon!
