I have a lot of odd balls of 4ply that I hang onto because I'm convinced it will be useful one day. Nitpicking skinflint, perhaps! What plans do you have for your alpaca/merino, that sounds lovely.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683410278809912462.post-71215056646223513852013-12-16T10:27:09.024-08:002013-12-16T10:27:09.024-08:00Yes, layering is the key!

Perhaps your wild prints/colour suggest a sense of fun and playfulness? :)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870435785776540136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683410278809912462.post-12036362956767991082013-12-16T10:19:25.415-08:002013-12-16T10:19:25.415-08:00Thank you very much! :) Thank you very much! :) Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870435785776540136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683410278809912462.post-21260493821588728772013-12-16T07:23:33.859-08:002013-12-16T07:23:33.859-08:00Not being a knitter myself, I can't really wei...Not being a knitter myself, I can't really weigh in there, but you've certainly piqued my interest. If I went yarn shopping with you, I'm curious if the skeins I was drawn to first would be a good representation of personality too?<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683410278809912462.post-32878726195042178212013-12-16T05:48:47.793-08:002013-12-16T05:48:47.793-08:00What a lovely outfit!

I really admire you northern gals and your ability to look fabulous in seriously cold temperatures, ice, and snow. And blue look great on you. <br />I crochet a little, but don't knit. It's probably just like fabric though, we all prefer certain colors, textures, and patterns that fit who we are. But now I am wondering what my preferences say about me, especially when I think of some of the wild prints and colors of fabric I've bought, lol.

Your outfit is wonderful, I particularly love the ruffles on the dress!<br /><br />I just popped over to Phonograph Fashions and I've got to tell you, I love what I'm seeing! Beautiful stuff!Randihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01194581745497542348noreply@blogger.com
