When I got back home, I was able to do some searching on what people are using for color combos and realized that if there is not enough contrast between the yarns, they tend to pool funny and look muddy. I am hoping that there is enough difference between these two colorways so that this doesn't happen. What do you think? Feel free to let me know.
Of course, I also had to buy something for myself. So, I got myself a skein of Watermelon Tourmaline in the Medium Weight. I have no idea what pattern I will use this with, but I'm sure that if I stare at it long enough, inspiration will come to me.
I also started on the Jaywalkers using this yarn from HLMiller. They look great and I would like to show you a photo, but they are in my purse at the moment and I am too lazy to go and photograph them. I will take some pics this week and get them up for your viewing pleasure as soon as possible.
Otherwise, going back to work was as crappy as I thought it would be. I still really like my job, but the joy that I posted about a while ago has gone out of it. I am tired beyond belief. I think that this pregnancy is getting the best of me and I am worried that I won't be able to get back on my feet as quickly as I would like to once the baby arrives. I am thinking of suggesting to my boss that I maybe only work part time from May onwards. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Oooh pretty. I will live the chevron scarf through you as alas I have no socks that rock.
Baby is more important than work, listen to your body, rest.
Those STR yarns look divine. I haven't found a source for therm here yet, also I have no idea which chevron scarf "everyone" seems to be doing, so can you enlighten me please.
Socks that rock. I am jealous. Sadly my socks do not rock. (But Stewie does!)
Hey! We missed you last night, hope everything is okay.
Those STR yarns would look great together, I think there is plenty of contrast between them and they would make a great chevron scarf.
