big yarn purchase

I did it. I bought some more yarn. That brings the project purchase to two for this month. That's a lot for me.


I can't wait to knit the Hemlock Ring Blanket! I bought some extra yardage in order to make a larger size of the blanket. brooklyntweed doesn't mention US 10 dpns in his needle requirements, but I'm guessing that they're quite necessary...how would one be able to begin such a small ring with 40" of circular needle?

I'm about 5" into the Bubble Ring Curtain and I'm having fun knitting it. Warning for those contemplating the project — you must either enjoy purling, or be proficient at making purl stitches frontwise. I'll post pictures soon.
