Recent stash acquisitions

Before I left Portland I got these new babies courtesy of the generous folks at Close Knit. Thank you Sally, Adrienne, Nancy, Jenny and Elizabeth. I’m so grateful to you all! With the gift certificates I got the Malabrigo Sock you see above (the color is “rayon vert”) and the Malabrigo Lace in “lettuce” pictured below.

I also bought Plymouth Earth Homestead, not because it’s organic, which is nice of course, don’t get me wrong. I bought it because it was such a good deal – only $6.50 each! You know how frugal I am. I’m planning to use it for another shrug but first I think I should finish the one that’s already in progress.

It’s damn hot here right now so I’m going to cut this post short. Look where I was on this day last year and now I live here permanently. Who’d a thunk it?
