Its a sock, Its a shawl, No its... I don't know what it is.
Okay. When I worked for StevenBe years ago it was almost impossible to go home with a paycheck. Anyone who has ever been to his shop knows you will always find a yarn that calls to you! Ah the impulse buy. My last visit did not disappoint. However I have not a clue what to make with this delicious ball of sparkly color! Oh and how could I not find the softest of mohair to match! Best of all. The color way was the name of my childhood idol.... Wonder woman. Now making a come back i am thrilled with all the patterns and now a colorway with interest!
However here is my dilemma. I made the purchase with not a clue what to make with them. How does one even decide with your impulse what the project should be? I've cast on the Wonder woman skein 5 different times. 2 times were for socks and the other times were different shawls. Nothing seemed like the right fit and i wanted to incorporate both of these lovelies. So now it sits starting at me in my yarn bowl begging to be touched and knit into something spectacular. I know that i am not the only fiber artist that does this. So any suggestions?
