Knitting Zen

The Lush Angora for the hot water bottle cozy arrived last night. I got the box out of the mailbox, and it was dark and I couldn't read the return address, but the box was so light that I assumed it must be something else. I didn't feel like there was anything in it at all!

But there were four skeins of angora in there. KnitPicks had one color on special: Grasshopper. It's sort of a greenish-yellowish-grey. It actually looks like nothing so much as some other color that's been lying in the sun in a shop window for about 80 years.

Well, maybe not that bad. But probably not a color I would pick if all the other colors hadn't been over twice as much . . .
