Not what I was expecting...

For Christmas my husband gave me a WEBS gift certificate. I had been saving it for their big annual sale and once that started I could not resist using it. Among other things I got this yarn (3182), which was a very good deal, right?
Well...once it got here I was a little disappoited with the color. I know tweed means specs, but I thought it meant light spects or darker specs not multicolored specs.



















I bought the yarn with the intention of re-dying it, but now with the multicolored specs, I'm not sure how it will turn out.
You know, I have to say the more I look at it, the more it grows on me. I'll have to knit a swatch to see how it looks.
Any Suggestions?

Sin mucho que reportar...

*scroll down for english

No hay mucho que decir. No he tejido tanto como me gustaria, en parte porque se me acabo el estambre de un proyecto y estoy esperando que me manden mas (como si fuera el unico estambre qeu tengo, jejejeje). La costura ahi va, mas lento de lo esperado.

Acabo de ordenar en Amazon estos libros:


































Gracias a Elizabeth que me dio la tarjeta de regalo con la que compre los libros. Luego les platico como estan.

Tambien estamos planeando nuetro viaje a el viejo mundo. Vamos a visitar a Jazy y Gera, y a aprovechar para ir a otros lugares. Ya tambien les platicare de eso. Hasta pronto!

* Not much to say. I haven't been knitting as much as I would like to, in part because I ran out of yarn for the project I was working on, no need to panic, yarn is on its way!
I recently ordered some books on Amazon (Gift card courtesy of a Elizabeth, a very sweet lady).
We're getting ready to go visit Jazy and Gera. We'll be there for almost a month! Lots of things to see and do. Of course, I'll be posting our adventures, maybe a little bit late, but better late than never!
