More Koigu Yumminess
Yesterday, I went into the city to hang out with Rakshinda (my Little Sib in the Big Brothers/Big Sister program). We ate at McDs, watched The Day After Tomorrow (my review), and went to Knit NY where I introduced her to the yumminess of good yarn.
I pointed out the various yarns to her as we walked around the store, but we ended up with two skeins of bubble gum pink Koigu.

I will knit up a lacy scarf for her. It's a belated birthday present (she turned 18 recently, which means our BB/BS relationship is officially over, but we're pretty good friends and I intend to see her frequently in the future). I'll have about two and a half weeks until I see her again; she is going to Saudi Arabia to do a pilgrimage to Mecca with her family.
Talking of yarn, I find the new Dale yarn, Hauk, really cool. I wonder what it would be like if I knit a rain poncho out of it.
