Eating my words

Well, as it turns out, the camera was actually a victim of reason #1 (see Monday’s post), and I myself had, indeed, set it down in an unlikely place.  Then, naturally, it was knocked off onto the floor, possibly by the cat,

Boots 

or, more likely, by me.

And, just to compound my humiliation, Rob found it within about five minutes of getting home.

So, after having publicly and completely undeservedly maligned my poor husband, I feel it incumbent upon me to offer an equally public apology.

I’m sorry, Rob.  Mea culpa.  Mea maxima culpa.

And now, those pictures.

Cables Untangled                                                           Melissa Leapman’s new book, Cables Untangled.  Full of great projects that are now on my wish list.

Like these ultra-cool cabled pillows.

And these beautiful cabled sweaters.

Wouldn’t one of these sweaters look great in my new yarn?

Elann Uros Aran                                     Elann Uros Aran in that gingery color I was talking about on Monday.

And finally, my progress on the Suffolk lambswool.

Suffolk lambswool on bobbin                                                One bobbin full.

“Lord, make my words sweet today, for I most likely I will have to eat them tomorrow.”

    Innocent-looking cat… Gorgeous cables…(oh yeah, holding a basket of clams, sure, you betcha. I’d be having a hissy-fit at the thought if I’d knit that sweater. [g] gotta love photographers sometimes for the giggles.) Pretty, pretty yarn, and – the spinning! Oh. My. Yum. And despite public apologies, hey; camera was found, and it still works. The latter especially is a plus, after a fall!

    Must get that book if only for the cover afghan and pillows! Though if those two models would deliver the book in person…
