i blame Emily Rachel H

I can't buy these* [Chuck Taylor All Star limited edition, for those not under similar financial restraints], but my covet bone is aching mighty bad. Emily Rachel H, whyfor you tell me about such adorableness? You are cruel! But you were right -- they're amazing. She says they have sheepy ones, too. Oy.

*I'm going to SOAR next month, and it's a damned expensive proposition. Unnecessary spending must be curbed as a result. But oh! Think of how beautifully I will spin when I get home!

Oh, I LOVE those - I am thinking you probably need a pair to wear to SOAR, like a trademark or something?

And what did you think of our Ribfest?

Those are super cute!

Myself, I'm saving up for a second set of the Sailor Jerry special editions. This time it will be the black high tops with the Pin Up!

By the by...have you seen Kat Von D's new show? I think I need to make a point of venturing down to her in the next year or two...

Those are terribly cute shoes. And you're going to SOAR? -- I'm very envious! You'll have to return with tips and tricks for the rest of us (I'm sure you'll be learning neat things about not-wool!).

I have them in purple. The bunnies are FUZZY. They totally rock. They also have sheep for those who don't think sheep are satan (I'm allergic, heh). I don't think the sheep are fuzzy though.

Oh, I saw the sheepies the other day at Journeys, but the colors were unfortunately not ones that would match anything I have. These bunnies, on the other hand...I did not know about this cuteness.

I so love these. I was drooling over all the cool styles at the store on Queen St. that has them (on our way to Blue Jays game) but fear they probably don't have enough ankle support for little old me. Sigh.

Are you going to the KW Knitters' Fair this year?

I think you got your cute brunettes mixed up there as to which is the cruel enabler here.

oh, it was RACHEL that enabled and taunted.

I blame Rachel, then. Will go and amend the post.

Amy, this almost killed me.
D'ya think they'll go well with my psycho sheep Birks?

Thanks for helping me add this to the Xmas list!

I don't actually think I taunted, per se. I'm ok with the cruel though. Appeals to my dark side.

I have the sheep ones (I could only justify the purchase because it was a buy one pair get a second half off sale)

They are cute but i feel like such a dork when I wear them

i love my sheepy blue chucks. they're AWESOME. :)

Then again, I like to wear chucks and have ... many pairs. The threadbare blue ones for working in the garage, the green ones and grey ones for work, and the sheepy ones for knitgroup or teaching (spindling). :D
