Lately I've just taken to deciding a pattern before buying yarn but that only works because I don't live near a LYS and so my yarn mainly comes in the mail!<br /><br />I just fiund elizabeth goudge earlier this year wirh The Scent of Water (after seeing it on someones yarn along post actually!) and oh I loved it and really need to pick up more of her books.

I also noticed Ginny's happy list and am needful of reading happy books, too. Not that I've been reading WWI books like her (although my hubby is), but the news of the day is so stark. I'm reading the Mitford series which is definitely happy, homey, and uplifting. LOVE your yarn. I knit a lovely skein of MadTosh into a Hitchhiker allowing the simplicity of the pattern display the beauty of the yarn. Happy reading and knitting (pun intended!),<br />xo LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760735212107263086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7644081471881436580.post-40714024705596773822015-01-22T03:28:10.464+11:002015-01-22T03:28:10.464+11:00Now what to do with it?!
