Books and more books…

So cool, lots of books arriving every day !! I just received my Amazon order this morning, my “Birthday present” 3 weeks in advance… So what, I’ll be away on holiday so better get them now, No ? ;-P

The popular Fitted Knits. I saw several designs in there on Ravelry that I want to make, mostly the Spicy fitted V-neck tee. Flipping through the pages quickly I also discovered the rally nice Elisabeth Bennett cabled cardi… Slightly small gauge to my taste but I still Reaaaally like it !!
Then I got the Loop d Loop Crochet book. My friend Berry got it and I just couldn’t resist. I’ll probably try to make the girl’s bolero if I find suitable yarn in the stash.
The february Sweater has been on my absolute todo list ever since I saw that one by BrooklynTweed. So I bought my first ever Elisabeth Zimmerman book, Yeah !!!!!! (remember folks, I live in France with no such books in local bookstores or public libraries..) I had also planned on buying more EZ books but Hmm.. Final bill said Priorities first..!! ;-P
And of course there’s that green issue of Knit 1 that Jackie so kindky sent me, Thanks again so much Jackie !! I’ll be sending stuff your way soon !!

I also got lots of reading for our 2 weeks away on Ebay. Yum, can’t wait to start them, I miss reading !!

One cute Isabeau Purse spotted here.. Keep sending me your pics for the Gallery !!

I’m thinking of starting another Isabeau Shrug for myself now with thin mohair, and maybe try and “upgrade” it to a small cardi. More on that next time hopefully !
