[Knitting] Zauberball!

[kniteracy]

I picked up this lovely wool on Wednesday at I Knit London, and now I'm thinking I may get a second ball of it if they still have it on Saturday.

Zauberball translates to 'magic ball', and I think that even in the ball it live up to its name. It's just alive with possibilities, isn't it? The wool comes in an astounding array of colours, not all of them this bright, I promise!

Zauberball! I'm sorry for the blurry photo, iPhone, iPhone, blah, blah, blah, but I really love this wool and the colours are fantastic. It will make up into very long stripes that fade into one another gradually, and right now I'm trying to decide what to make with it. Right now, I'm thinking of the Flit & Float Scarf from this spring's Knitty, or maybe....

Bettie's Lace Stockings

Firestarter

Magic Mirror

Summer Sliding

Which one do you think I should make? :)

I am so loving the Firestarter socks, perfect for Birks. I am definitely going to knit them, just not sure with what. I do still have a whole hank of that purple malabrigo, though. Alas, not enough for the lace stockings....

Knitting for babies is instant gratification, plus it makes their mothers think you're cool. :)

Heh. I hope Andi thinks I'm cool, but I've never been totally sure of that. I love her either way. :)

Andi's a knitter too, but I'm not sure how much she's been doing for the kid while the semester is still going on. (She's a prof.)
