off her newest obsession, a teapot.  Not to put too fine a point on it, a PURPLE and white polkadot teapot.  I love teapots and have several, but I’ve never set out to actually collect them, until now.  I’m crazy for purple and when I ran across this sweet little pot, I had to have it.  Could this be any cuter??

It came in this great matching box and if it gets any better I won’t be able to stand it, matches my reading glasses perfectly.  Perfectly purple.

My next project is burning a hole in my knitting bag, but I’m trying to hold off starting it until I have the Diamond Leaf Cowl finished.  It’s from Knitty Deep Fall 2011, Alda by Harpa Jonsdottir.  I think I’m in love (again).

A man of good will with a little effort and belief in his own powers can enjoy a deep, tranquil, rich life — provided he go his own way….To live one’s own life is still the best way of life, always was, and always will  be.  Henry Miller
