Detours

I'd been pretty good about sticking to my knitting after I started the Forest Stole. And progress was made.


Then I admit, I needed a little instant gratification, so I started the little purse kit I bought in Hood River.


Then I was "enabled" by Dianne and we took a trip to Dublin Bay Knits in the Pearl to check out their sale. Through the power of suggestion (and store samples), I came home with Louisa Harding Accessories and yarn to make a hat...



...And Alchemy Yarns Bolero.

















Then I received a call from KnitPicks on Tuesday: Could I do a quick turn on a project for Monday? The yarn on arrived in Wednesday mail and will go off to Vancouver today.
