Bitten

Seriously, I had not heard of these books at all until a few days ago when the Entertainment Weekly comes to my house. There on the front cover is some brunette & Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter looking like they were on some strange Fabio cover:


I read the : "The Hottest Book since Harry Potter"and decided that I would not read any more then the front cover. I am one who prides myself on knowing a bit about pop culture and the fact that I knew NOTHING about this... was actually kind of cool. I quickly ran out and picked out The first book, Twilight. I tore through it in under 48 hours. It was SO good, and nice to not be spoiled by a magazine artical. I quickly picked up the second book New Moon, and finished that in 24 hours. I then picked up Eclipse and ripped through it in just over 24 hours. I was lucky that the fourth book Breaking Dawn was due out in two weeks. Unfortunately... those two weeks are DRAGGING BY S-L-O-W-L-Y...

So with Jade Lady in hibernation, I needed something to distract me... I picked up something out of my stash that is filling the bill. Its not a deep blood red like I'm looking for... its more "Cullen"

I have some of this:

Its a Yarn of The Month Club peice from Three Irish Girls. Its Riddermark Merino in Campbell. I thought it fit the description of Cullen Clan. Pale (cream/white) with topaz colored eyes (um the topaz/browns)... that glittered in the sun (silver). The brown sometimes are so intense that it goes a touch red. It was just what was needed.

I decided to make a small Scarflet with it... something to cover your neck.

Im still not content and am looking for something to knit a little more... Twilight-esque.
