There is a fair isle pattern in the baby jumper that I am making and I figured that it was about time for me to learn how to knit English style. I used to crochet when I was younger so when I taught myself how to knit I just held the yarn as I would if I were corcheting. I found out that this style of holding the yarn is Continental. But since I have to switch back and forth between two colors I figure that it would just make sense to hold one color Continental and the other English. After 2+ years of knitting Continental trying out this new style makes me feel like I'm all thumbs. I will win though. I'm determined to conquer the English technique!
In case you have no clue as to what I'm talking about check out these videos on knitting techniques.

I went to A Good Yarn today to get more Blue Sky Organic Cotton for yet another Baby Bobbi Bear. The last time that I was there I noticed that they carried the yarn that I'm using to make JD's sisters babys jumper out of. So I grabbed the label and went only expecting to find the color that I needed. Boy did I luck out. Not only did they have it in the color that I needed it was from the same dye lot as the skiens that I had picked up from Circles! I'm so happy that I finally get to finish the jumper and the hat!
