and then i'm going to....

Last year my cousin bought me some knitting magazines and a needle case for Christmas. It was my first knitting related present, and I was thrilled. The magazines were full of clothes and ideas, and I had a place to store all those circular and dpns I suddenly seemed to have collected - awesome! 


And my other cousin, the other family knitter, warned me, "Once you make some clothes, you won't stop."


Pish pash, I hadn't stopped anyway! But clothes are an investment, of time and supplies. My piles upon piles of single colour skeins of wool are no longer relevant? How can this be? 


(I MUST KNIT FASTER). 


Enter my O W L S sweater. Yes, okay, that is nice to wear and it's super cosy. But now I'm working on my Aidez, and I can see the end of my Aidez cardigan in sight. Woot! Can't wait to wear it. 


So what did I do today? Order MORE YARN for a new cardigan?! What? Someone needs to restrict me from these things! Oh wait, that's what the boyfriend tries to do.... oops?


Anyway, here is what I plan on making next - but in burgandy!!!






Its a Kim Hargreaves design, called Cobalt.  I already bought the book (Indigo) when I saw it used already on Amazon so am excited to make this! 


After my other one is done, of course?
