dorayme;27984]oh, the Forest/Hemp is also very nice, much more of a visual contrast of light and dark, IMHO. So many choices, what to do, what to do???
dorayme, what to do? Why, one of each of course. :)

Lol, as much as that sounds like a grand plan, in application it wouldn't quite work out for me. For one Rocky would kill me. For two, as it is, I have already breeched my bag storage spaces and am spilling into overflow which gets sideways looks. (If much more came to live here I would have to start posting about how nice a plant holder the Forest/Hemp becomes when I'm not carrying it and 101 one ways to use the Cardinal Hemp around the house). For three, I have other obsessions that are starting to be jealous like my yarn and fiber stashes; and the shoes are staging an uprising as evidenced by the first desoling I've ever experienced when my Teva Spiders lost the entire outer heel at camp.Quote:

Arrggh! Cardinal/Hemp is my ideal swift! I bought the olive/linen (which is still beautiful) last year, but now I wish I had waited for the cardinal/hemp.
Anyone want to buy a cardinal/hemp and swap it with me for the olive/linen???

Now you're just taunting me, Darcy...
:) Are you on Ravelry? There might be someone there who's willing/wanting to trade.Quote:

I'd also love to volunteer to model bags for Tom Bihn.
You can take my place!Quote:

But this Forest Green is gorgeous, and it works well with the Hemp. However, seeing the Cardinal makes me happy that my Cardinal/Cardinal Little Swift will be arriving in a couple of weeks.
Cool. When do you think you're next visit will be?Quote:

Yay! I've been looking for a knitting bag for months. I really wanted a swift but none of the colors were really me. I'm so happy that I now have a forest/hemp coming my way :)
