Despite the abundance of Projects In Progress lounging around in my studio, I've had that gnawing "what-am-I-gonna-knit-next-need-a-new-project-for-summer" sensation lately, as the weather has hovered from grudgingly chilly to rip-off-yer-duds-and-unplug-the-nearest-fire-hydrant hot and humid. Overnight. Somehow it's not wool afghan-knitting weather. StuMan and I don't always agree on A/C -- I don't love it so cold in the house that icicles drip from the chandelier but he would never turn it on at all all summer! That's why when I found this covetously beautiful new Scent of Summer collection from Kim Hargreaves it set off all the bells and whistles of my central knitting nervous system. Gotta knit! Now! Cotton. Pure, soft, white (remember snow?). Delicate lacy cardigans. Mmmmmm.......touch me feel me..........Leave it to the Brits to evoke both the past and the future in one gorgous knitting project.
