That guage thing!

My sister laughs when I say "I have nothing to knit"!!
I can't seem to decide what to start next. I have a pile of patterns sitting beside my computer tempting me and tons of stuff in my favorites on Ravelry.
We are going to England late March and coming back late April. What is the weather going to be like? Rain! Spring with sun and lots of flowers! Cold!!
Never mind the weather, what if I can't get guage?

Support Designers

I was reading a thread on British Knitters today on Ravelry about Vogue Knitting and found 2 articles by big name designers (Ysolda) (Annie Modesitt) on compensation for their work. Read these articles please and if you agree start blowing your horn. Maybe we the little people can make a difference.
