You're all getting sweaters for Christmas.

Sometimes at work we get crochet books, and today I scored a real gem.



Doris Chan is a BAMF. I want to make nearly all the sweaters in this book, aside from the icky poncho-looking one (Rah-Boon-Dee-Ay a.k.a. a doily with arm holes) and the tank tops. The best thing is that the sweater I love the most (Eve's Rib Tunic) is made from Caron's Simply Soft Shadows, a very affordable and fun yarn. It's sort of space-dyed and when it's crocheted/knitted up, it self-stripes and looks fabulous. I think I'll go with the Mardi-Gray color, because I could pair it with fun pastel accessories, and I've always been tempted to buy it.
