continental

Been busy around here again.  I have been getting orders ready for Re Belle in Kentucky and for Ball and Skein(newest store) in Ohio.   It is so exciting to send yarn out across the country, I still can't believe that Tempted is all over now.   I am so happy to show you all some of the colors that I am sending out into the world.  Thigh Highs  (Black with Turquoise resists) and Femme (pink and black) will be hitting stores soon. 

 I have also been a little under the weather for the last several days.  I absolutely hate headaches, especially those that last for several days.  Anyway it really slowed me down.  I am feeling better today and have a whole lot of catching up to do around here.   I felt so bad I didn't even want to knit and that is really saying something, just laid up with a pillow over my head.

Speaking of knitting I am working on Linear out of the Norah Gaughan Woodland Gothic booklet from Berroco.  I am using Palace instead of the Inca Gold that they recommend.  It is working out wonderfully.  I have learned something interesting about myself in the process too.  I have always been a thrower, but all the sudden I have become a picker.  I had just finished the ribbing for the back and I had an overwhelming desire to work in continental!  Now I have finished the back and am working in the left front and have been knitting continental ever since.  Don't know what came over me, but I am knitting faster now.

So how do you knit?  Are you a thrower, picker or do you switch?
