Wrapping up the Month of Love!
Each weekday I’ll be posting 1 yarn inspired by a famous pairing, from now until February 14th and each Wednesday I’ll be giving a little roundup of the last week’s love-y yarn.
The Contest is closed, since is the last week of Love, but you can always suggest yarn names and colors in the comments!
Pinky & The Brain – suggested first by my husband (whom I ignored) and then by my best friend (whom, of course, I listened to!), it simply stripes between pink + white (available here)
Crockett + Tubbs was suggested by Hanna of Ever Green Knits (she also created the most excellent resource for eco-friendly knitters – Green Knitter). It wasn’t until after I had spun together the ocean blue, seafoam green and white (available here) that I discovered it perfectly matches the Season 2 poster:
Awesome!
Tea + Honey was inspired by a suggestion from Laila of Rawfish. She suggested Tea + Sugar…but since I take mine with honey, I knew I needed to go with that!
This is my usual afternoon tea setup (on the rare occasion I’m at home to have afternoon tea) – cup, teapot, water, knitting, journal and music.
Rick + Ilsa – inspired by the dark romance of Casablanca.
Pride + Prejudice was suggested by Erin of Knitting Hands and is inspired by the dramatic dresses of the Bennett girls. (already sold)
I’ll wrap up the Month of Love with Spike+Dru (inspired by my nearly-complete first-time watching of Buffy) and Clif + Norm (from Cheers!). Drop by the Boutique for those last two Love yarns this week!
If you are one of the inspiring people I mentioned above, you have won 50% off one skein from the Boutique! To redeem it, just buy what you like and put “Month of Love” in the message to seller. I’ll send you a revised invoice (or if you want to pay right away, I’ll refund your discount.)
Even though the contest is over, I’d still love to hear your ideas! What couple did I miss? What sort of series would you like to see next?
