Nothing like new stuff

So the mailman brought me some new yarn, I'm trying out SWTC's soysilk and also have some more yummy Tilli Tomas silk with sequins called disco lights in colourways Amercian Beauty ( beautiful red) and Olive. I also picked up two knit books, One-Skein Wonders Edited by Judith Durant, Cables Untangled: An Exploration of Cable Knitting by Melissa Leapman and Interweave Knits Winter 2006 edition. So many projects so little time!! When I charge my battery for my digital cam I'll post some yarn porn pics.

Oooo another really excited stash enhancement is coming my way via USPS! I ordered SWTC's TOFUtsies sock yarn from Kpixie and some size 2 dpns. I may not be able to wear them and knitting them up might iritate my allergies but I couldn't resist! I got the colourways: 720 Sweep You Off Your Feet, 719 Best Foot Forward and 736 Under Foot. TOFUtsie is 50% superwash wool, 25% soysilk, 22.5% Cotton/2.5% Chitin (made from shrimp and crab shells and has antibacterial properties)
