Messy Hands!

Just a little! I've been painting/collaging. It's nice to be doing something creative other than knitting. I'd forgotten how much I like to do collage and paint. The piece won't be finished until tomorrow. Perhaps if I like it there will be pictures!

Dr. Who scarf progress

The scarf is now long enough to be wrapped around your neck! I've still got a ways to go, and my hand is tired, but, so far, so good. This scarf won't be quite as long as the original, because the friend it is for isn't much of a scarf wearer, so, a little less length will make it a bit more wearable for him. I'd say I'm nearly halfway done now.

More movies and knitting

I am an old lady. All I do is sit around and knit. Well, okay, that's not ALL I do. I do other things. I work, and occasionally go out. But, my favorite pastime is sitting on the couch curled up with my knitting, and watching some movie or tv show. I can't spend much time in front of the tv just watching. I feel too idle. Knitting and film go together. I don't know why, but, they are perfect companions.

I've completed a few more rows of the Doctor Who scarf! I'll have much more done after tomorrow. I'll have pictures! I'm maybe a third of the way done now! Holy crap, a third of the way done and the thing is about 4 feet long. I really agreed to make 4 of these? I am insane.

Headache

head ache

Ugh. . .

Finally

Pictures! The lengthwise scarf, and the neckwarmer. I like them both.

I've been working on the Dr. Who scarf again. It's only been a week, but it feels like it's been sitting forever. I began a new stripe! I'll have pictures of it when I feel I've made significant progress.

I bought yarn to make me a sweater. It's purty! I have no clue when I'll get to it though, I've got to finish the Who scarf, and I have a million other things I need to make. I feel a bit overwhelmed by all the requests I've gotten recently. I could knit my ass off for the next month or two and maybe finish it all! But, Busy is good.

I still hate these short days. They make me tired. I haven't been sleeping enough either, and that makes me extra tired. I need a vacation. A week somewhere out in the woods on my own with my knitting would be nice.

Rats!

GAH! I'm trying to post pictures and blogger is broken. I have pictures of my lengthwise scarf complete, and a neckwarmer complete. But, alas, it is not to be! I'll just have to post extra pictures of awesomeness tomorrow evening!

I bought yarn to make me a sweater today. It's going to be awesome and purple with red stripes. I've had the yarn set aside for this project for a LONG while. I'm glad I'll finally be able to get started! I'm also still working on the who scarf, and a new lenthwise scarf. I'm not sure I like the colors of this new lengthwise scarf though, I might even start it over!

I still hate winter. It puts me in a negative funk, and I don't like it. I fight against it, but it's difficult. I'm just glad that the days are getting longer again, and even though there is lots of cold weather ahead I have something to look forward to. I love how the days slowly get longer. I love the sun. Someone tell me again what I'm doing on this side of the country?

So, anyone with camera equipment want to help me with a project? I'm thinking I want to film myself knitting something (a sweater maybe? or something sorta large) and then I want to speed up the footage into a short film. Of course, I'd need someone with equipment, and also with the editing ability required. I think it would be fun.

Okay, I lied

No pictures today. Too many internal things going on. Check back tomorrow.
