more crap for the masses...

I will try to silence myself after this. Really.

Blythe Wallpapers by Gina Garan!
(the site also includes a link to another site that is selling official Blythe t-shirts, some quite pretty...)

Hobbit Name Generator
(mine is Peony/Primula/Esmerelda Broadbelt of Buckland - first name changes depending on whether I use my legal name or a nickname...)

BlogStickers
(some are funny. many are kind of lame. i am going to make one that mimics the Unamerican Activities sticker: "I represent BLOG, you fuck". You'll see which ones I actually saved when they start popping up here.)

A Japanese art-knitting exhibition in the UK
(really cool weird stuff.)

Another horribly complicated sweater I want to make
(so pretty! so ambitious! i wonder if autumnthought has the pattern for this one? I'll have to bug her about it. we've initiated a pattern exchange plan so that each of us will spend less dosh on knitting patterns. I also really dig this.)

I don't have the new Rowan yet but I should in a few days, and I'd be happy to scan & send...also an Adrienne Vittadini pattern book I picked up that has a few nice patterns (they're for discontinued Vittadini yarns like "Rebecca", but its a common gauge so it shouldn't be a problem. Cute cardigan, bag, one-peice pullover...)

Thanks for posting the works-in-progress, wish I had some pics of mine to show you! My first Elizabeth Zimmerman sweater 2/3 done!
