I rather like the mittens and the scarf, though Dragonfly looks like the knitter ran out of yarn half way through and decided to use a random ball :lol: . Thermal is pretty, but the texture isn't really me.
I really really like Thermal. I'm thinking of getting blokey to order me the Knitpicks Gloss for my birthday (is it just me or is that REALLY cheap for what it is? Anyone tried it?). I was also thinking of getting him to order me the Knitpicks Options too whilst he's at it *rubs greedy hands together*
Does Knitpicks deliver to the UK? I saw that ad too, but if it's the company I'm thinking of, they only do delivery within the US and Canada. I must investigate further...
No they don't deliver to the UK but he has friends in the US so I'm hoping he can sweet talk them into taking delivery and forwarding to us :D
Oooh, that's lucky! The Knitpicks stuff looks lovely :) .

I'm intrigued by the scarf and the idea that it's reversible. I'm not sure about the mittens, there's obviously a trade off between warmth and being able to bend one's fingers and I'm not sure where these would fall.
Not sure about Monkey:suspect:
I'm really am going to have to knit this (http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEwinter06/PATTcalorimetry.html) (which was mentioned on another thread awhile ago) i really like it! The yarn used isn't very available in this country though :(

Thanx Jill :) , i did come across that site when i was looking for this yarn the other week but it was quite late and i realised you had to pay through paypal and i use paypal that rarely that i always forget my username and password :rolleyes: and i ended up giving up...stupid i know! I probably will order some from there when i get round to it. Thanx for the unintentional kick up the bum :)
