getting back into it

is it really march already? i feel i've been sleeping through the past few months. hibernating, really.

during the breaks in my prolonged slumber, i have been diligently working on Justina. i've finished one of the big panels. and while it does have added waistband pieces, it looks really small to me. i don't really get the sizing of this skirt, but i'm trusting that it will all work out in the end. i am really eager to finish this and to start thinking about designing something for the summer. as many of you know, i'm not a big fan of summer knits. however, i've been thinking a lot about a really lightweight, jewel-toned,silk tank top. considering the gazillions of yarns available now i shouldn't have any trouble finding something that pleases me. any suggestions for a super shiny silk or silk blend yarn that's fingering or sport weight?

that's all i've got. enjoy le weekend!

i don't know if the alpaca is too warm, but blue sky alpacas does an alpaca silk blend in a sport weight - and they have some lovely color options...
