Summer Anticipation!!

I have a cute little shrug on the needles right now. I used the green yarn that I purchased a while ago. I was going to use it to start my striped project, but you remember how that turned out. Well, in the end it turned out just fine. I'm about 40% finished with my current project and I've saved the stripes for the lively spring/summer colors.


I simply cannot wait to get started coordinating my summer knits with all the cute summer accessories, including these bright and fun flip flops from Old Navy! I love flip flops. They are soooo easy to wear and it just doesn't get any more comfortable than this. And with all the colors...FUN FUN FUN! So anyway, it's going to be too much fun matching them up with yarn for this summer's knits. Have to hurry up with my current project so that I can get started with all those yummy colors.

I love flip flops too, once it's warm enough out, they're the only shoes I wear :)

What beautiful flawless knitting.
And the swatches are fun too. I pantone things, so we have the same enthusiasm...

VeganCraftastic-Me too! Every now and then I put on something a bit more fancy. But I'm a comfort girl and I've learned how to be cute & comfortable at the same time.

Natalie-Thank you very much! And yes, I have started to swatch for accuracy. We've all gotten that "off" color that we ordered from just viewing on the internet. That can drain the fun right out of your project. And this way, it's really fun to match your yarns to your accessories!! :))

Tana-Thank you very much! I can't wait to see how it turns out too! :)

Beautiful colors; I can't wait to see what you come up with! I'm keeping my fingers cross for the rainy weather here to end so it can officially be flip-flop season.

Well, I've already gotten yarn to match a few of my flip flops. This is serious business!! ;)
