"I've got a new project. Oh Yeah!" (Visualize singing and dancing down the aisles in my favorite yarn store) Don't you love planning a new project, thinking about the pattern, reading the instructions, dreaming of the yarn, then looking at the picture again and again imagining what it will look like? Over the past several months I have looked at this Drops catalog, dreaming about which pattern I want to knit. I came up with 87-7 in Bali GGH in chocolate brown with Colinette Zanzibar in peaches and cream. The photos do not do the yarn justice--the brown is rich like chocolate and the peaches and cream is the color of warmth, sunshine and roses (not as peachy as various shades of pink). Can't wait to get started on this project. I have only one more sleeve to finish on my 60's jacket and I'll be seamin' next weekend.
PS: Rob said that it is ok to buy more yarn for my stash because you never know when all of the sheep on the earth will disappear causing a serious yarn shortage. No worries fellow knitters--I have enough stash and projects to last all of us a long time.
Great yarn choices, it's going to a terrific color combo! All the sheep disappearing? Bit your tongue! I don't even want to think about that. :)

That is CUTE. You're going to look great in it! I love how you chose chocolate brown to go with the peaches and cream. Perfect color combo, in my opinion!
