My goal for this week is to finish Brambler. I decided to change yarn, so on Saturday I went to a LYS and bought some Shibuiknits sock yarn in Mulberry. I also bought some Bristol Yarn Gallery Buckingham in a beautiful grayish-blue color (picture coming later). It's so soft and I thought I might opt to use it for Brambler, but I couldn't resist the beautiful berry color of the Shibuiknits. The scarf is much farther along than in this picture. It also has more dog hair on it! This has been a fast knit and I can't wait to block it.
I know I'll be tempted to cast on for another lace scarf when Brambler is done. But, I'm going to try to finish up a few things first. I'm close to being done with the Bubble Bag and the Chevron Scarf from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Maybe I can have those finished by next Wednesday, too.
The brambler is gorgeous in that color!
