What's up Wednesday!

What's up you ask??

March Mid-month dish KAL
Monthly dishcloth KAL (hey, I need some ;)

Is it???
Is it a tea cozy, um..er..??? Stay tuned...

My most favorite part of this week....the Lady is outta hibernation!
February Lady Sweater
Not sure if I'll be adding 1 or 2 more buttons. Pardon the indoor lighting... I just love the black, raspberry and green in this colorway!


Button...
What do you think? I like them both....a lot...I've always wanted silver for this sweater....it's gonna be hard to choose.

Yarn Bowl
You likey my yarn bowl! I do too! You can get yours at Knit Witch. I got mine at SAFF and I love using it.

You're FLS is coming out beautifully! I've recently fallen back in love with the Raven series and am just eating up all the projects I see crafted from them. That's a tough call with the buttons. In the top picture I think I prefer the more ornate button, but in the close up I prefer the one that looks like shell. they're both great, though, so I bet either choice will be great.

For Lady February Sweater I would definitely use button on the right!

The solid (or is it stripey?) button does it for me.

I vote for the stripey button too. Perfect!

String said...

I like the button on the left

Love the FLS!!! I like the button on the left best, but it may be too much with the lace pattern. I'd have to see it together once that part gets going.

Chris said...

I like the button on the right the best! Remind me what yarn you're using for the FLS?

I love the sweater! I'm hoping to start mine over the weekend. Have you considered using 3 different buttons? I have a couple sweaters like that.

Mag said...

The Celtic button on the left. Definitely.

It looks like we aren't helping much on the button choice. I vote for the button on the left.

Button on the right!

I think I needs me a yarn bowl.

I like the pinwheel-looking button, because even with all its ornate-ness, it doesn't detract as much visually as the shell-looking button does. MHO.

Carol said...

that red one could be a tea cozy. Could also be one of those'doughnuts' you sit on after hurting your heinie....

Both buttons are fab! Hmmm... would have to see with some of the lace portion to make a better judgment, tho.

I love the yarn bowl! I'm too cheap to order even the discounted ones right now (shipping fee squashed it), but someday!

I like both buttons too-I vote for waiting until you finish. We're at about the same place in our FLSs--we can have a long distance KAL!

I LOVE your FLS! I'm knitting one, too, and I don't even own buttons for it yet. I think I really want wooden buttons, though.

I like both buttons, but I REALLY love the ones on the bottom/right (depending on what pic you look at), but I'd wait to choose until you finish. :)

FLS is on my 'someday' list. Lovely colours.

I love that bowl...

OMG Your knitting is awesome. I am very interested in the tea cozy. Where did you get the pattern. I can't wait to see it finished.
Oh glad to find another sock knitter.

Hugs!!!

I vote for the Celtic button, but then again, I'm completely biased!

Yay for getting the FLS sweater out of hibernation! That's one of my goals for the next week (well, I did cast on and knit about 4 rows...).

Happy almost Friday now!
