It was advertised as 6-8pm. Em has dance lessons until 6pm, so we didn&#8217;t get up there until 6.20pm. By then, the fashion parade was over! Probably a good thing, as I didn&#8217;t see anything I wanted to knit \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nI did buy a new Cleckheaton pattern book.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"studiobook.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/studiobook.jpg\" width=\"286\" height=\"363\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nThe yarn the book calls for is a new season yarn from Cleckheaton Australia, called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cleckheaton.biz\/Colour_range.asp?yarnid=2\">Studio Mohair<\/a>. It&#8217;s 50% mohair, 50% acrylic, and inexpensive. All the yarn was 20% off, so it was only $4 a ball, but I didn&#8217;t buy a single ball. It&#8217;s not that I didn&#8217;t like any of the patterns. I bought the book specifically for these two patterns in particular.<br \/>\n<center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"studiocardi.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/studiocardi.jpg\" width=\"326\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"studio jumper.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/studio jumper.jpg\" width=\"303\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center><br \/>\nThe jumper has a lace pattern in it, which is difficult to see here.<br \/>\nBut none of the available colours grabbed me, and I thought of the stash at home, so I resisted. I&#8217;ve got the book now, I can always sub with something different later.<br \/>\nNow I&#8217;m off to read the Sunday paper, and knit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Mothers Day! \ud83d\ude42 I hope you are all having a lovely day.
