My yarn for Smooch has arrived! I got all seasons cotton in one of the beautiful new melange colors, cookie. It's a really lovely and sophisticated looking sort of taupey color. The other melage colors are also gorgeous and I was so tempted to get the peachy color, but I decided that tank girl can be subtly sexy this time. The yarn came pretty fast, but now I feel like I've fallen behind having waited a couple of weeks to decide to rip and get the new yarn. So I'm anxious to be able to start again.

But I'm soooo close to finishing the wannabe sweater that I'm not sure I can put it down to start Smooch. I'll be starting the neck any minute now and then there's only the seaming left to do. This thing wants to be done! I feel like wearing the sleeves already, even as I finish knitting the front!

And then there's Becky's cool swatch project, which I'm really excited about. Can't quite say why, since it's making swatches, something I'm usually loath to do. But I think since these swatches are finished products and not preliminary exercises to knitting a sweater or something, I'm feeling differently about them. I've already pulled out several of my all seasons cotton leftovers and have a few planned. Be sure to check it out and then join in on the swatchy fun!

Now to decide which project gets my attention this weekend. Decisions, decisions.
