Ahhh….the wait will be a little longer………..

08 May Ahhh….the wait will be a little longer………..

for my first non-self published pattern to be  shown to the public 🙁  It seems the publisher’s release date for the travel knitting book is August, not May as I had thought. I suppose that since I’ve waited since last fall when my design/project was due, three more months isn’t much longer. And I could consider the book’s release a birthday gift……I’m a summer baby. Not to mention that the release date isn’t within my control anyway….I keep telling myself “Patience is a Virtue”. So, I’ll stay focused on the projects I’m currently working on and wait for August to get here.

In the meantime, be sure to sign up for “Play Yarn  Dash” that starts May 15th. I’ve partnered with Debbie of Dodge Creations to offer my Springtime Socks pattern in a kit. Debbie chose some beautiful yarns to go with my pattern – check it out.

This is the first ever Play Yarn Dash KAL kit – and it’s $8.00 off the regular price during May! The prize I’m giving for this Yarn Dash is a collection of 3 Desert Rose Designs patterns – to get you started on collecting all of them 🙂

And not that I really needed to but I have added to my stash lately. Susie will be getting some handknit socks with Hand Painted Squooshy and I bought some Malabrigo Silky Merino to make us matching scarves, or something fun for this winter.

I think it’s time to take inventory of personal projects and determine an order of completion…………….isn’t it true that the knitter with the most unfinished projects when they die wins? No? I better get busy then – Happy Knitting :-)!
