This stuff is like crack to me. I have to have it, all of it, all the time. I have a nice stash, but I want more. I want Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Pink, etc., you get the picture. Its so durable and easy to use. No matter what my pattern describes as the appropriate fabric, I see it in Ponte Knit.
Though in my mind I know it is not appropriate for every garment, actually it may not be appropriate on most projects I do, but I love it. I can't get enough of it. So with my Christmas funds, I dived in. Yes, Joann's had an online sale, along with my coupon, I saved a bundle.
I promise I will not covet this fabric but make meaningful use of it. I will not stash it away and stare at it daily, like I do the many yards of it I have at home now. I'm thinking some really cute red Ponte Roma Knit wide legged pants would be cute. Or maybe a nice Royal Blue dress with side pleats and a side split, hmmmmmmm yum. Or even a cute chocolate brown cape, and black peplum. Oh how my minds travels when it comes to Ponte.
I think I will now call my son Ponte, because I love this stuff, just as much as I love him. What do you think?
