What inspires me
Posted on Feb 26, 2009 in inspiration

As I was waiting for the bus on the corner of Alberta and NE 15th Street the other day, I encountered this friendly, helpful and colorful young man. Sensing a glorious opportunity, I just had to bust out my camera and Johnny didn’t seem to mind one bit. I asked him where he picked up his colorful pieces and he said, the Gap, Old Navy and Goodwill. Just goes to show that high fashion needn’t cost an arm and a leg.
And even though it may seem that I knit primarily in shades of gray (grey?), and it’s true, I am heavily influenced by bright colors…especially on a rainy day.
Oh and I almost forgot…






I. Want. Those. Laces. You’re right, high fashion doesn’t have to be expensive. He looks like a page right out of magazine. The bright colors look great with his skin tone.
I think, when refering to the color, it’s spelled gray. When it’s a name, then it’s grey.

“Gray” is the American spelling of “grey,” both of which are words that describe the same color (or colour, I suppose, depending on where you’re from). Both spellings are generally acceptable.
