The new knitty is out, but if you need even more online free patterns check out Australia's newest knitting magazine, Yarn. Thanks Kylie for the link. Kylie (another girl who loves pink) also has her own column in the mag, so check it out.
I have SO much to post, but NO time. I'm off to the Aichi Expo in Nagoya for work on Sunday for a few days (ps for the Aussies out there, don't be jealous but I will be seeing Tommy Emmanuel live), but I might try and sneak in a post before I leave. Thanks to my SP and Amy for some great pressies recently - yarn photos (koigu, handpainted lace weight wool from Uruguay and a big bag of Rowan Cork) coming soon. Lately I also picked up four skeins of Lang Jawoll superwash that was on sale for 200 yen per skein!!
Also, some news for you Tokyo knitters, the Rowan store in Ebisu Mitsukoshi is having a sale this weekend 9/11 and 9/12 (Sat and Sun only). I hear it is 10% off everythinng and it only happens twice a year. That being said, I'm not going as it is usually cheaper buying Rowan from overseas and paying shipping, but for a quick fix or a chance to touch and feel before you buy, then it's worth a trip.
Have a great weekend!
Wow, so you're going to the Expo after all? I hope you have a VIP pass to avoid all those lines. Have fun!!

Ooh - hope you had fun at the Expo. I did, but it wasn't that crowded when I visited. The tapas cafe at the Spanish pavilion was excellent.
