Vogue=Crap.

Am I the only person who is getting really tired of Vogue Knitting? Out of the last few issues, I dont think there has been a thing I've been interesting in knitting... It seems like the only things I've stopped flipping for have, sadly, been advertisements.

I think I'm done with Vogue. My subscription is up this issue and I'm not renewing. I'd rather buy a few independent patterns online.

Knitting has been slow around here--a few more rows on the Rogue and the Garter Rib socks are halfway through a heel.

My main distraction:

Hello Yarn--Maldives Spinning


Spinning--Hello Yarn Maldives

yummy. Superfine laceweight yarn. Roving is the Maldives colorway from the Hello Yarn Fiber Club. It is absolutely delicious--super soft and is spinning up beautifully.

This is, by far, the thinnest yarn I've spun and I'm surprised at how evenly its turning out. I'm thinking I'll do a simple 2-ply to let the color chunks meld a little so the ultimate lace project doesnt have a pooling/striping problem.

I'm tired of VK too! They had a few good issues before I subscribed, but now that I have a subscription, I don't like anything really. lol. I enjoyed the interview with the lady who was on Dancing WIth the Stars (I'm spacing on her name.. the lady on teh cover. LOL) though.
