Stuff.

Well, I am getting nearly done with my baby sweater knitting project:

Elizabeth Zimmerman February Baby Sweater

This is based on the Elizabeth Zimmerman baby sweater pattern from the "Knitter's Almanac." It's really a great pattern, and actually pretty easy. It's very satisfying.

My stepmom and I went to the garment district in LA this past weekend, and I bought a bunch of pretties, including some Amy Butler fabrics. I made a little knitting bag to keep my work in:

Here are some of the lovely things I got:

I mean, who could pass up green corduroy for $2 a yard? I mean, really.

Looks like you got a great haul! The sweater is looking adorable. LOVE the green apple print fabric. Don't know what it is about that I adore so, but I do.

Oh, I did get some really pretty things. That store is just so dangerous- it's a lot more reasonable than say, Joann's or something. It's even cheaper than M&L in Anaheim. I think they have a better selection, too.

I don't even know what I am going to do with it, but it (the green apple fabric) is adorable. It goes against my philosophy to buy fabric without a specific item to make in mind, but it was just too cute.
