I don't have much of a post today - no WIP pictures or anything :(
I have been working on my cardigan, gran's scarf and I cast on a new project last night - I'm making some leg warmers *grins* As the weather is getting pretty bad now, I thought it was about time I had something to keep my legs warm.
The only picture I do have is of some new yarn I bought. After a lovely weekend with my mum, we had a pretty horrible incident on Sunday morning (I don't want to go into lots of details, but essentially I was assaulted on the front doorstep. I'm ok, and the police are handling everything, but I'm feeling a bit out of sorts still).
On my way back home, I stopped at John Lewis to check out the yarn, and picked myself up some Noro sock yarn:
The bright colours just jumped out at me, and so I had to buy it. I've never used Noro before, I know it tends to split opinions, but I decided I should try it before making my own opinion!
Its so pretty. I hope everything gets taken care, and you get back to normal.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I do hope you are okay, how scary.
ReplyDeleteThat is some very pretty yarn you picked up, I have never used Noro either, but would love to.
OMG, I can't believe what happened! I hope it all gets settled and you start to feel safe again.
ReplyDeleteThe Noro is lovely.
I'm so sorry to hear of your incident. But your yarn is very pretty. I have some stashed away so I'll be eager to see what you make with it.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous yarn!!!! I love window shopping and impulse buying lovely yarn. I bet it will look great knit up :)
ReplyDeleteOh that must have been a real shock, hope you are OK now....I think Noro is the best cure for anything, enjoy that lovely yarn :-)
ReplyDeleteOh no poor you! Hope you're feeling ok now and glad the police are involved. Love the colours in the yarn, I can never work out if I like Noro or not! Looking forward to see what you make with it :-)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - I'm glad you are OK and I hope you start feeling yourself again soon... That Noro yarn is just gorgeous and so cheerful. xo
ReplyDeleteI think you deserve yarn therapy after that! Just sayin'....
ReplyDeleteI just popped over from the Yarn Along. Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I can't wait to hear how you like the Noro. Beautiful yarn! I'll bet it will knit up beautifully.
ReplyDelete*hugs* Glad you're okay and that yarn is a lovely pick me up.
ReplyDeleteHope you are ok, and that Noro does its best to cheer you up! It looks gorgeous, I have been tempted to buy Noro!
ReplyDeleteGeez, how shocking! I am glad you are ok -- it's good to take some time to adjust though :) I just made a scarf with some Noro yarn. It was ok. Loved the colors, didn't love the feel or drape. I guess my own personal jury is still out on that.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you had a bad thing happen. :( I hope you're okay. The Noro looks brilliant, and I hope you enjoy it. I am in the Noro-loving camp - the colours! But then I like rustic yarns, and don't mind yarns that aren't super soft.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your troubles. Glad you are okay. Love th bright cheeriness of Noro. Hope you enjoy knitting it up.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your assault. This is bad news. I hope you are feeling better and safe soon. I will buy Noro yarn some day ...
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you are ok! I personally really like Noro yarn. I think it has lots of personality. I hope you enjoy it as well.
ReplyDeleteMan, I am so sorry to hear about your experience! Hope that Noro helps put things right. I haven't made anything with Noro either - I'm excited to hear how you like it!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love knitting leg warmers! You have my full support. :)
that sounds really scary, glad to know you are okay dear. i hope the noro makes you happy (i love every thing except for kureyon, which is pretty scratchy), that color way is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely yarn! Can't wait to see more :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! What a scary thing to go through! Hope you are ok. On the brighter side....your yarn is gorgeous.
