The day I got my Holz + Stein needles in the mail, I also received my latest book purchase from Amazon: The Natural Knitter. I want to spend some time actually reading this book before writing about it and posting a few photos. For now, I'll just say that it looks good, real good.

On another subject, it seems that chocolate is in the air lately as I'm seeing it pop up everywhere I go, or is it that I am tuned to chocolate and notice it more than usual? Whatever the reason, given your response to yesterday's post, some of you might enjoy this article on Ping mag: SWEETCH: Cakes with Surprises. I particularly like the key and the button-shaped cookies. Buon appetito!

Ping Mag is a Japanese "magazine about design and making things". Not to worry, it's published in both English and Japanese and its coverage is an eclectic mix of design/craft/fashion items so you'll find articles ranging from street art to Iranian typography to Japanese packaging design to quilting.
