I cord the i-cord...

In between knitting Clessidra, the deep-v pullover and the cardie, I needed a quick project. So I went to my LYS, picked up 3 skeins of Noro Kureyon and set down to knitting a booga bag.

I have finished the bag and now am working on the i-cord. My guess is, it is called i(diot)-cord, since it turns you into a mess after doing a bazillion rows of 5 stitches...I do not like it.
And it takes forever to knit 6 feet of it...

The Noro Kureyon was also a bit of a hassle to work with.

I love the texture and the colours, which are so lovely and brilliant. The downside: Bits and pieces of woody thingies which kept turning up and which pricked my fingers. Quite unnerving. But anyway, I thing the yarn is worth it. If I ever work with it, I will tape my left index finger so as to save me the pain of picking splinters out of it.

As soon as I have finished doing the i-cord, the bag will go into the washing machine and I will felt my first piece of knitting. This does give me a slight twich over the eye, since I have simply no clue if it will turn out the way I want it to...

Ah, and asides from that, I treated myself to some Nonibag patterns and some skeins of Cascade 200. Should arrive tomorrow, since I got notice that it was mailed last week. *hooray*
