Stash Appreciation: Tosh Merino Light in Tart

IMG_1179

I've been on a total Madelinetosh kick lately.  She is such a genius with colors, especially the very saturated and the very subtle.  This skein of Tosh Merino Light is in the colorway Tart, a deep red with undertones of black.  Stunning.  I haven't decided yet what this will be, but I have a feeling it will end up as a shawlette or cowl.  Something close to the face, to show off that gorgeous color.

And my Fashion School Blows My Mind moment of the day: today I learned how to place darts in a bodice using pencil, paper and a gluestick.  Woah.
