We were noticing our firemen were lookin'
a bit down-in-the-mouth,
so, we found them some friends.
Hooray, everyone's happy again!
We are making a "saucy" apron
with these vixens by Alexander Henry.
Maybe even His and Her aprons
would be in order. Hmmmmnn...

Yikes!
There's this crazy
thing going on
these days in the
knitting world.

Happy Choices Sock Blanks by Plymouth Yarns.
What the heck is this? you may ask.
Well, Plymouth has put together a flat length of colorfully dyed,
machine knitted fabric which you unknit into a pair
of very groovy socks. The choice being: "Do I finish the ends and
wear it as a scarf, or do I knit a pair of socks?"
Of course, you make the socks!
So, be the first to be sitting on the train going to work with
a scarf round your neck magically unraveling into a pair of socks.
And when everyone asks:
"how-kin-ah-git-me-some-o-that-groovy-action?"
send them to the Franklin Mill Store.

New Friend!
We have the coolest new friend here at FMS.
I first met Karen when I noticed the spiffy pants she
was wearing and proceeded to barrage her with questions about them.

She used the
Indygo Junction
Artisan Pant pattern.
I have to admit that
when I've looked at
these patterns in
the past they
haven't inspired me.
I obviously, inaccurately, judged a "book" by it's cover.
These pants are great! Very flattering, fully cut, "flowey" legs.
Not at all frumpy. Also, very easy to make. There are two styles
to choose from, one with a side slit in the bottom panel and the
other with an inverted pleat in the front and back. They both look great.
Karen has been in with 3 editions thus far, two in Kaffe Fasset fabrics
and an extremely elegant affair in one of our couture fabrics.
The photos above don't do these pants justice.
You'll just have to try them for yourself.
