oooh.

From the most marvelous [livejournal.com profile] datagoddess, a cool new knitting magazine just launched online: twist collective. Some gorgeous patterns in there; definitely worth a look. I'm not sure what to make of the "magazine" feel to it - it's interesting - but there are some gorgeous patterns. I really want to make the cabled kneesocks. <3 The patterns are purchase-only but they don't seem that unreasonably priced to me.

I admit the magazine format confuses me somewhat (but I am easily confused). Love the knee socks!

Next in the knitting queue are a couple of things from Kim Hargreaves Dark House collection. I am trying to work through my wool stash... Good thing I have lots of DVDs to get through! Too bad I have to work and sleep.

Hey, all their pictures are captioned!

I am working out of Sensational Knitted Socks (book by Charlene Schurch) right now. I would be happy to mail you a xeroxed cable pattern or two. Search on Ravelry using the tag "schurch" or look at projects from the group "Sensational and More Sensational Knitted Socks."

I am obsessed with socks right now so I would SO welcome a partner in crime!

Oooh oooh yes! i have lots of sock yarn and would love to knit with you from across the country. <3 i love the 'little shell rib' and the 'moorish lattice' ones best I think although they are all gorgeous.
