June's Inspiration - Paul Jenkins

Every month I'm faced with the task of narrowing down all the wonderful selections from the clubbers and every month it's never easy! This month was no exception because I really liked two paintings. I ended up almost tossing a coin to choose Paul Jenkin's Phenomena Waves without Wind (1977) but what ended up swaying me in the direction of this painting is it's bright, cheerful and colourful nature. Summer's almost here and colour is everywhere so it seems quite appropriate to bring lots of colour into this month's colourway :)

I'm looking forward to painting this yarn - it's always fun to work with bright and vibrant colours!

Congrats go out to Miriam for this month's art piece choice! Thank you :)

Time for June's Contest!

I'm a little late posting this but I wanted to get it up so people who aren't suggesting in Rav can make their suggestions here! Rules are the same as when we started the contest in February. I have links in the sidebar to our group page in Rav as well as previous colourways.

Please submit by Sunday, May 25, 2008. Thanks and good luck everyone!

May's "Spoiler"

Thank you to Crista for choosing this month's art piece! I hope everyone enjoys the yarns and the colourway! This month was a record for delivery time too with most packages reaching the USA in 3 days...wow!

Happy knitting everyone! What have you decided to knit with this colourway?
