My sweet, sweet mother has given me a gift certificate to the LYS for xmas. I have no idea why she gave me said gift certificate, since she also gave me tons of beautiful sock yarn which is so pretty I don't even want to knit with it, I just want to stare at it and fondle it for hours. (pictures later when I find the misplaced camera) So I decided to go the the LYS today and grab some of the famed Noro Silk Garden yarn that everyone in the blogosphere raves about. I was thinking "Hat! Silk Garden Hat!" I've seen several versions of hats made from said yarn, all lovely. Then I saw this. I would look so cute in this! I love cardigans, I love lettuce edges. I look nothing like this model, but I MUST make this sweater. So I'm off to do errands (recycling, lightbulb and cat food purchasing, husband to work driving) and then I'm stopping at the yarn store. Mantra: I will not spend more than the amount on the gift certificate. I will not spend more...
