Amiga!

I finally cast on the Amiga pattern after many years of waffling. The raglan style pattern is gratifying and mindless, and I seem to have chosen the right size for my gauge with weird yarn. My current fear is running out of this discontinued yarn, but hopefully I'll be able to find something compatible. It's knitting up nicely, though surprisingly slowly as the cotton/linen yarn is very slippery on my metal needles. All fingers crossed for success!



My current read is Sophie's Choice by William Styron. The meandering writing style is a commitment, and the subject matter is not bright, but I am enjoying the book nonetheless. Now that school is almost going to start again, it might be a while before I finish this one...

It's one day past Yarn Along Day at Ginny's, but still worth linking up and having a look! Do enjoy everyone's craftiness. Till next time!
