I almost impress myself with my new stash-reducting skills.
I finished the Filtes King Kim cardi/vest/top/whatever... I had originally intended it for the Ruffled Top in the Spring/Summer 2005 Knit1 mag. Yeah, that didn't work out. I didn't like the neckline or the armholes or the gauge of the yarn... I kept the picot crochet around the bottom and the sleeves, but wrote my own pattern for everything else. I realized today that I've never followed a knitting pattern as written. I've always changed something, if not written it myself.
I also finished my first felted bag out of Lamb's Pride Worsted - in colors Onyx [black] and Lotus pink [hot pink] - it's cute, and the perfect size for carrying around my new Harry Potter book [which I'm now reading for the second time]
Pics coming soon. I don't have batteries for my camera, oops.
I leave for camp on August 1st. I'm already planning which knitting projects to take ;] Do you ever have an idea that pops into your head out of nowhere and won't go away? That happens to me with knitting projects *all - the - time*. The other day I was thinking about life and my impending vacation, and all of a sudden the idea pops into my head that I need to have a One Skein Wonder out of Calmer in powder pink. How RANDOM is that? It just took over me & I suddenly HAD to have it. So I'm considering buying the yarn now and taking it with me camping, or waiting until after camp and taking it with me in a couple of months to San Diego to see Jamie. LYS doesn't carry it so that makes things more complicated, but what can ya do?
As for real life... I went to the DMV on saturday, and *after* waiting for an hour for my number to be called, with 10 numbers left til mine... the power shut off. At the DMV. Blahh. It was out for about maybe 25 minutes, but it was probably good for a lot of people, because half the people left when the power went off. Although the startline to get your number was extremely long, the lines for everything else moved very quicky, and we were out within 15 minutes after that. Funny story though :]
On the Needles: Chinadoll Top out of Karabella Tropicana. *not* my own pattern :] heh.

kept quiet for years. The opportunity exists due to a legal loophole
allowing some established colleges to award degrees at their discretion.
With all of the attention that this news has been generating, I wouldn't
be surprised to see this loophole closed very soon.
