New Stuff!
I had a very knitty birthday this year. From my sister, I got a Yarn Harlot book and a pattern book.
From Eric and Kim:
From myself:
Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in "Spring Frost". Love CTH!!! Very sproingy.
Purchased with a gift certificate from David and Cheryl:
Koigu!
From myself:
Brooklyn Handspun in "Java". This will be my first BH experience. I'm excited!

Regia bamboo and Regia cotton colors.
Also, I finished Odessa (did ya'll even know I was working on Odessa?). I love this pattern. The beads look like little dewdrops. I think I will knit with beads all the time now.
Ok, so I had it with me at work. But I wasn't working on it at work. Unlike some people.
Close-up look at beads:
Great birthday! Oh, and my parents got me a generous gift certificate to Lands End, which is not knitty, but very much appreciated nonetheless!

I'll knit at work all I want, thank you!
You really did have a knitty birthday. In fact, it looks like a birthday full of sock yarn. You could even say that your birthday SOCKED!
All right, that was lame! Whoops! What I meant to say was:
Happy Birthday!
I love those beads! What kind are they and where did you get them?
ooooohhh! That's some pritty-knitty stuff! I especially like the Brooklyn Handspun. I've never worked with it before, but it is just lovely. Glad you had a nice birthday!

It looks like you had a great birthday and made quite a haul. And the Odessa - I have four words for you - Bee Yoo Tee Full!. I love the color and the beads are gorgeous, the perfect touch.
