Deadline Distraction

I'm on deadline for a couple projects, but I'm having problems staying on task.  There are too many tempting projects, and I don't have the energy to resist.

I've been playing around with two-color brioche.


This is Liguria - the hat project from the Kit & Class offering that just wrapped up.  Brioche has a different rhythm, and I'd forgotten just how much fun it can be.  Also, this is a new DK base, and I'm loving it.  I'm contemplating a sweater as part of the trial run . . . after I finish my deadline projects.

I'm not usually a pink person, but the last few weeks I've been drawn to it.  I think I might have SAP - Seasonal Affection for Pink.  I don't know about you, but I crave bright, cheerful colors after winter.  And it continues with this week's color inspiration . . .


Pink through and through.

Brioche Kit & Class

We had so much fun with thrummed mittens last month that we decided to offer another class in the Kit & Class series.


Two-color brioche.  I know people are often intimidated by brioche, but it's really not as hard as it looks.  Hélène Driesen of Kieran Knits will be teaching again, and she'll be using Liguria (Ravelry link) for the class project.  The fun starts later this month with two Zoom sessions.

Kits are available in several color combinations.  See website for all the details.  If you're going to Farm Fiber Day on Sunday, you can grab a kit and sign up for the class then.

This week's color inspiration . . .


Icy blue.
