In General

Last weekend I finally bought some buttons for my February Lady Sweater. I had been using some pins I got from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame during the summer, moving from Oregon to New York. I took a seven day car trip to get here, it would have been six days, but we just had to stop in Cleveland.

I've been thinking about going to school in the fall to become a photographer. The local community college is having a spring open house this Friday, so my mom and I are going to go check it out. My biggest concern is whether or not I'll be considered an in-state resident or not by then. I will have lived in New York for a year on august first, so I hope I'll be considered an in-state resident.

I'm currently in a knitting/crocheting slump. I have no idea what I'd like to make that I actually have the yarn for. I have many things I'd like to make that I don't have the yarn money for, but I can be patient. So, I'm latch hooking right now. I found a latch hook kit that I forgot that I had, then I have some cross stitch kits to do after that, so I'm not at a complete loss for something to do.

February Lady Sweater

I finished my FLS. I wore it yesterday to a party and everyone loved it. They couldn't believe that I made. It fits well too, a bit roomy in the armpit area, but nothing I can't deal with. I also finished a pair of socks yesterday, they fit like a dream, I love them.

Sweet iPod!!!!

I just bought myself an 8GB iPod Touch. It has got to be the coolest thing that I've ever had. Now I'll never get anything done! I've put most of the music and picture on it that I want and there are so many cool apps. I myself enjoy the free apps the best because...well, they're free. And I love the wi-fi, it's so cool. I already have wi-fi in the house, so I just needed to connect to my wi-fi for the house to get internet on my iPod. This is so cool!!!!

and Chris Cornell is so good looking, yummy.

Felted Bag Swap and February Lady Sweater

Ravelry has got to be the best website ever. I love it, I'm addicted to it. I love all the free patterns, I love all the different groups, I love being able to look at other peoples projects and comparing things that I've made to things that others have made. It's the best, I'm on there everyday.

I'm participating in a felted bag exchange, it's really fun. I'm making a Little Slip of a Thing bag for my swap partner in a light pink and dark brown color scheme. It's quite fun to do and I can't wait to finish it.



While I'm doing that, I've been making my first February Lady Sweater. I say I'm knitting my first because I have a feeling that I'll make more that one. It's been easy so far, but I'm still on the yoke and haven't got to the lace yet, but we'll see how it goes. The yarn I'm using really isn't that dark, but in order to get the detail I had to turn the camera's flash off.
