Pablo and me.

Picasso was my favorite artist when I was a little girl. I can't draw a cow that looks like a cow, but I can do a mean Cubist doodle. Like Picasso, however, I go through color periods. For a long time, all the yarn I bought was blue. The man at my first LYS called it my "Blue Period," and was very surprised when I smiled shyly and said, "Like Picasso."

Looking at my Ravelry page, I am still in a Blue period. I am also in a Pink period. Aside from a brief, Harry Potter-inspired dalliance with black, green and gray, all but one of my projects are in shades of blues and reds. I like knitting them far more than I like wearing them. That might also explain why I give so many of my projects away.

I just cast on a scarf in two shades of brilliant green. For myself. So there.
