So, finally, a post without the haziness of my medicine in my system. I'm in a rush, but have realized that one of the reasons I stall on posting is because I feel the need to post these huge indept and extravagant blogs. Ain't Happening? Reality is.. I'm the mother of four young kids. So, short stumpy posts is what you're going to get. love it or leave it.
Anyway, point of the post is ... I finally decided on a new project and am in love. It's the Michael Kors Cabled Tunic from the fall Vogue Knitting. It's lovely and a pleasure to knit. I'm using Classic Elite's Wool Bam Boo in a silvery grey color, which I'm thoroughly enjoying knitting with. It glides through the fingers.
I checked out the new preview for Vogue Knitting Magazine yesterday and there are a few items I'm interested on knitting. Don't you find that's always the case? You can't find anything to knit (I know this never happens to Marji or Jae, but for some of us it does) and then once you start something, there's tons of projects trying to tempt you away.
Take the blanket in Noro on Knitty - Lizard Ridge. I'm fighting the urge to pick up some needles and start knitting this. I'm not sure I'll be able to resist much longer. I just don't know how to be monogamous to my knitting. I'm a dirty dirty yarn slut. There. I've said it. I'm the Meredith Gray of knitting (ref: Gray's Anatomy) However, I'm not ready for a 12-step program yet. I think I'm ready for a 12 project on the needles program, so am off to abandon my reserve and get nasty with some Noro.
note: See Marji - apparently it's not the meds that make me send out strange posts. I'm naturally that way.

Michael Kors designed a vest in the Fall Vogue? See? Before my Project Runyway obsession, I didn't even notice. Now I can't wait to get home to check it out.
Lizard Ridge looks great. You should totally cast on for it. Monogamy is for marriages. Infidelity is for WIPs. It's just the way things are.
And despite the fact that my comments are longer than half the posts out there, short posts are nice. Better a little than nothing at all. So post.
I have a ton of things on the needle, so I am definitely not the one to talk about project monogamy. :) I say you should definitely cast on for Lizard Ridge. I love the look of that blanket.
