One Big Fat Update
There is nothing like a big stream of conscious, early morning, before coffee post to make up for lack of posting!
This past weekend was very fun. I had the Knit Out and Crochet in south Austin on Saturday, and then the Knitting/Crochet meetup on Sunday. I am worried that on both occasions I made a total ass of myself. Especially on Sunday. My mouth got ahead of me, I was just so happy to have a group of people to hang out with.
On Saturday I walked away with a pretty ball of yarn from Bluebonnet Yarn Shoppe. I have some knitting needles as well. Someone sat down and taught me how to knit. It went great, until I got home and forgot everything I was taught! I might try again, but right now my mind is focused on getting some projects done.
The lapghan I am working on is now to my knees. That is progress! I have started, frogged and restarted a scarf four times already. I think this time around it is looking right. At least I hope so. It will be a Longhorns colored scarf when it is done.
I have the urge to start a scrapghan to use up my stash. (So I can buy more…mwuahahaha) I may end up starting that today, just to have more projects in the works. In case I get bored.
All of this crochet has really helped me deal with some stress lately. (money stress mostly) I am really glad I taught myself. People also seem to think it is cool that I have jumped whole hog into this hobby. (Secretly it is because they want stuff)
Why do you think I sent you that pattern? Muahh hah hah
