11.14.2005 :: Pasta Zen
Wow. Can you say, "fast service". I ordered several skeins of Jamieson's DK yarn from Two Swans Yarn and it was at my doorstop in no time flat. I think I placed my order on Thursday and the yarn was waiting for me on Saturday.
I bought a couple different shades of green and a couple warm beiges. Also a blue that I was surprised to see in person. Bright!
This is the yarn I'm thinking of using for the japanese twisted stitch cardigan - or at least for some swatches.
Feeling like a bit of doggie zen? Katy and Ellie are always happy to demonstrate their powers of self-control. This time with pasta.

Self control or spectacular training? Either way, they are a joy to watch. :)

Love their fancy doggie bowls! I should just break down and buy the Jamiesons!

Your house looks so cozy. Have fun swatching!

Sweet dogs! Definitely post on how you like the Jamiesons. I have a lot of the chunky and am going to make a sweater out of it. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts.

The Jamieson's looks awesome. I might have to get a skein or two myself to swatch. Or maybe I'll just let you do all of the work first before I jump in. :)

Love the colors you've chosen to play with.

The colors are beautiful and I love the action shots of the dogs! Ask me if you need any help with translating the patterns. :)

Your dogs are something else, you can almost see the tears in their eyes waiting for the pasta!! If I do something like that which is so extremely anticipated to my dogs they hold their breath! Its very funny to watch.
That blue yarn is a gorgeous color! I'd want a sweater just for that alone.

Dog trainer or not, I'd be hard pressed to get this from my two hooligans. Maybe, someday, I'll have a couple doggie zen photos to share.

Your dogs have more self-control than most people and if that isn't saying something ...

I must show this picture to Disney...self control is not one of her strong points!
