Yikes Stripes!

My friend and I found some fantastic yarn at Knit Wits in Sedona. What a fun shop! Petra the owner, is more than generous with her help.
My shrug using the yarn from Knit Wits. I had simple oral directions from the owner.
Such cute samples around the shop!

Jo Anna trying on the sample in the shop. She got a black  and white combo yarn.

Petra and some fantastic fibers,

I just finished a new skirt for my daughter. I love this knit fabric. 
I ordered it from Marcy Tilton - oh my what nice fabrics she has.

Ummmm...should I keep this for myself?
The skirt pattern is from Skirt Package One, Brown Paper Patterns.  I used the Sip-On Princess Skirt but since I planned it to be short, I modified it.  I did not want to match up stripes and have a slit in the front.    I lined it with a light weight lycra blend I had on hand  from Christine Jonson.

Where I got the Brown Paper Pattern is an interesting story!  Ummm ....some other time.
