Strep and Knitting


I have wanted a cowl since i saw the yummy black cashmere YSL last winter. Even on sale it was $300, so when strep presented itself I finally got around to knitting one and updating this. I started this at 11am today, and even with miscellaneous errands I managed to finish by 8pm today. Yeahh me. I put in on ravelry and titled it "Big Fat Cow(l)" The color makes me think of Opening Ceremony in New York.

The yarn is from Twinkle. I c/o 60, knit 3 rows in rib stitch, and then alternated the rib stitch until it was long enough for my neck/head. Then I knit 3 more rows in an alternating rib and casted off. I used almost 2 skeins.

I don't have any pictures from New York or of much, but I miss him and hope I can see him in December.

All Hallows Eve

Halloween is coming up quickly. Guess what I'm being...

Coats






Photos of a coat from Opening Ceremony by Charles Anastase . I love him, his designs, and I wish I was making enough money to be able to buy this lovely coat. Perfect for all the rainy fall days in Philadelphia. ;)

Tom Tom Tina














The other night, I was listening to the Tom Tom Club, and I was reminded of how cute Tina Weymouth is. She has influenced the modern music world via her work in the Talking Heads and the Tom Tom Club, and I see examples of her outfits from gigs in the 70s/80s on the street now.
