Loopy Love

It came! My skein of Loopy Legends 'Janice's Sunshine in Winter' colorway, and I LOVE it! (So does Sumo!!)

















I am hoping to cast it on today, if I can decide on just the right pattern. I loaded it on to the swift and wound it into my ball winder so it is ready to go.














The colors are perfect, and I LOVE the name. Especially in light of the winter we have been having!!











Sheri even sent me one of the new Loopy Totes and thermos which I will use to store and carry this project in. And if that's not Loopy enough, Sheri also chose to spotlight me in her Loopy Limelight today.... How fun is that?






Well, off to work. I finished a little cozy for my ITouch this morning and it is in my purse ready to go.













Until Next Time....

Lovely colors! I'm so excited for you. I cannot wait to see what becomes of that beautiful yarny goodness!

I was lucky enough to get the red tote this past sneak up... too cute for words!

Off to read your Loopy Limelight interview...

I just love your Loopy Legend colorway! I nearly grabbed one but I couldn't tell if it was blues or more of a purple. Now that I see it better, I may need to snag one when they are back in stock! I grabbed Ferns & Toadstools and Carolina Morning (as well as one of those cute bags and a stuffed Loopy) and I can't wait to cast on! (i'm thinking monkey socks- haven't tried that pattern yet)

Congratulations on your Loopy Legend status, with your own yarn colorway named after you! That is so awesome! And your red canvas bag and Loopy thermos mug are great additions!

Sumo looks so sweet with his head cuddling your new colorway.

Sunshine in Winter--that's something that all of us who live in the northern tier of states need to see some of, after our winter this year! Very, very cool, bright, and happy! Congratulations, again!

Lovely looking yarn! Can't wait to see what you decide to make with it. I'll be getting back into the knitting soon, hopefully. Need to catch up on my sleep from my trip to Egypt and get myself back on Korea time instead of Egypt time. Got a pair of socks I'd like to finish...and a few more to start...and lots of projects I want to make...school starts back up on Monday too, so have to make some leson plans (ick!)...but will knit when I watch tv I think...unfortunately I didn't find any yarn or any knitting shops at all in Egypt. We had asked in a couple of places but they didn't seem to understand what we were meaning...
