Oh wow man...

This was originally a brief post about the first image - you see, I've been looking through the Garn Studio's free patterns. And there are sure some finds...

Doesn't that face make you want to knit those mittens? It makes me want to knit them, at any rate. I'm also imagining a) the photo shoot & b) what the rejected proofs looked like.

But I couldn't resist sharing this with you. This is stunning. I could maybe see making the hat if it was really supposed to be a tea cozy... but why would a grown woman make this for herself? (I should totally make one for S_____. I can totally imagine her wearing that out in the field.)

.

They do have some brilliant designs though. This is in sock yarn, but there's another with the same short-row shaping for women. I wonder if I could Franken-gauge a sweater that would fit Am out of the baby & the lady's pattern?

This one gets my attention every time I go through the Garn patterns. I like it more all the time; maybe in a year or so I'll be ready to commit to actually trying to make it. I'm sure my skills are adequate; but I get AADD really badly. (You know AADD? Artistic Attention Deficit Disorder?) Right now, my girth is expanding in a directly inverse ratio to my ability to focus, so I think I'm going to try & keep my projects small &/or simple. I've got lots of ideas; the execution ability is getting a bit impaired, that's all.

I'm going to go & eat something then to bed. Later tater!
