Back in the knitting game

Here's proof as too how long I was out of the knitting game: today I finally redeemed my gift certificate to Hilltop Yarn that I got over three months ago. Sad I know. But I enjoyed it.

I bought some beautiful teal Lambs Pride to make the Pippa Bag from Rowan. The best part was, the Lambs Pride was on sale so I needed another purchase to fully use up the g.c. With the yarn shopping pressure mounting, I just couldn't find anything else I needed. So I ended up picking up a little something soft and pretty for my mom's birthday! I'll be the favorite daughter now!
