And suddenly I get a design request: "can you come up with a knitting pattern for a quick project? We need it by Saturday." Sure. No prizes for guessing what this project is supposed to tie in with..

.. having said that, a good friend of mine is getting married next year and I have her aesthetic in mind as I'm designing this. I intend to reknit it in a suitable colour and wear it at her wedding.

Now, excuse me. I have a pattern to write up.
