And: there is a new chunky cotton (3 sts to the inch) raglan pattern up on knitty! It's here, it's cute, it can be made in lots of colors.

I think also that I need a Sitcom Chic. I've worn the same thin LL Bean tan cardi almost every day this week because it's chilly when I leave the house, yet warm when I return.

and I must admit a "sin". I bought some yarn (even though it's supposed to be a stashdiet). I visited the Knitpicks site and saw that they were closing out Circus, a yarn I really like, and they had enough of a color I really liked for a hooded pullover pattern I had seen and liked....so I bought it, justifying it that if I waited until after Easter, the yarn would be long gone and it might be impossible for me to find Circus for 40% off ever again.
