Hues

Over the weekend I read
_Cheaper than Therapy_
Joy, healing & life lessons in fiber.

My favorite essay was
"I Love Hue" by Catherine Kittreel.
The title caught me.

After years of knitting with Offf-white
I've been inoculated with the color bug.

Valley Yarns put out a beautiful
catalog filled with color photos.
A wish book for knitters...

Not unlike the 1940's
Sears Christmas Catalog
it sparks dreams

One photo features a long skirt...
perfect for Grace...
knitted in four inch rounds.

Longmeadow: 60% cotton and 40% microfiber
Fuschsia
Lettuce
Periwinkle
Dark Purple

Ah!
Hues worthy of an artist's palette.

The pattern can be ordered online
and downloaded.

The miracle of technology.
