i finally took a look at Knit 2 Together by Tracey Ullman and Mel Clark. at first, i thought it looked lame - the silly cover and all. but it's actually really great - patterns i actually like, funny tidbits from Tracey and great little stories throughout. i think it may have actually inspired me. especially since Mel's parting words are, "Don't stop knitting, even in summer." how appropriate.

here are my pics from the book:

linen kilt - a beautiful skirt that hopefully works (none of that baggy-ass thing)


house slippers - finally some slippers i would actually wear


luxe neck warmer - still undecided on this, but interested


butterfly pullover - i can't tell if it's the top, or the way the model makes the top look, that i like


pimlico shrug - i've been looking for something just like this!


table skirt - i can't help it, i like it


novella socks - more legwarmers! but i can't do ruffles



grownup bonnet - cute and functional


rowena cardigan - i'm not 100% sure about this one yet



and ya, they have a pattern for that darn sweater on the cover, but it's not making it on my list.


so, i've been thinking i maybe i should ease back into it...i really need some dishcloths!
