Greetings...

I'm ivanovaknits, the newest watcher in the ranks. I also adore Buffy, knitting, knitting while watching Buffy, just like the rest of you! I chose the watcher group because I'm nerdy and bookish, recently completed my doctorate and am watching graduate students (I'm doing my post-doc), and I adore all things tweed. I drink tea at three, gin and tonic in the evenings, and studied martial arts for several years although I have never been in a real fight in my life, and never plan to be. I guess that makes me kind-of watcher-ish!

Faourite episode.... there's so many to choose from! I love any episode that Druscilla is in because I LOVE her costumes, but I think my absolute favourites are the musical episode, and the season finale. My current knitting project was cast-on when I re-watched season one a couple of months ago, the Lace and Cables Capelet from Vogue Knitting Holiday 2006. I'm using a locally purchased mystery wool in a red handpainted colorway for the lace section, and some black Rowan Yorkshire Tweed (maybe the color is 'Darkly' but I don't remember) for the cabled shoulder and collar.
I think it looks rather Druscilla-esqe. If only I had her wardrobe... Well I'm off to watch some more season 3 before the DH gets tired and wants to go to bed... he hates it when I get too far ahead and he loses track of the plot.

Cheers,

Ivanova

That looks very pretty so far. And I agree...definately something Druscilla would wear!
