My latest finds at Barnes & Noble

I do believe I've gotten my money's worth with this one.

Ended up with a number of tabbed pages and several more that are just plain lovely.

Like this "Putney Shawl" 

A cute shawlette 

worked side-to-side with a quick border worked with picked-up stitches.

While the pattern states light fingering weight yarn

with a gauge of 

21sts x 36rws = 4" on Size #6

I can see this worked in any of my fingering weight sock yarn.  

Which I may or may not have in Stash.

Several patterns from this issue have been added to my Queue.

Time, if only  .  .  .  .

********************

As much as the Knitscene mag was a good  buy ~~

 let me tell ya

this magazine 

is loaded with very cool patterns.

As you may have  deduced by the cover,

it's very feminine.

As I browsed the mag displays I passed it by twice, didn't think there'd be a thing I'd want to wear, 

let along knit.

WRONG ! ! ! 

Picked it up and just had to find a seat so I could really look at it. 

Yeah - - - just look at the finger less mitts on the cover.  
Hetty's Sunday Cuffs

How could I not want to knit a pair or two of these loverlies?

But to pair it with this

will complete the look.

An hour later,
 I brought out my Mother's Day Gift Card.

Both these mags came home with me.
