This is a just a little peek at what i have been doing while avoiding school. There is actually WAYYYY more than this, this is what was at arms length to photograph. And in actuality I haven't really been avoiding school but i have been seriously distracted with getting my new life organized. The car, the bedroom, my headspace... my emotions...
I have been feeling pretty good lately. My head thinks that my heart is just playing tricks, like the pain is still in there and that i am just numb to it. But I am not sure about that. I even think that i may be ready to start dating again. did I just say THAT?! The pain is definitely still in there, but i am feeling it in a healthier way... that sounds weird i know, but trust me when i say that i am feeling worlds better about the break-up. why just yesterday i was able to listen to The Cure & Patsy Cline at work without hysterical crying, or even that twitchy thing that my eye does when i am trying desperately not to cry in public. I missed listening to The Cure, but man oh man it just rips me open to hear those whiny love/heartbreak/crazy person lyrics that I normally love to hear.
KNITTING...
I have made several more hats, I know big fk-in suprise. I have made a few more wrist cuffs, love them! I have made a couple more pairs of fingerless mitts/gloves, as birthday gifts, people just love those things. Made a birthday hat for my rad new roommate. I am putting the finishing touches on the baby blankie for niko who was born in May. It's just now cold enough to actually wrap him up in it, so I refuse to feel bad about taking so damned long! Well... actually Kate wound up knitting one panel, so the blankie is now officially from the both of us! Finished a lace-leaf scarf for myself out of the rowan yorkshire tweed dk that is discontinued and was purchased about a year ago. I am in process of a fleted bag for me, another scarf/wrap for ME (the "superlong wrap" from the knit box of patterns, i know that there is more than one box of patterns, but it's the one with the good patterns in it. I am knitting it out of my buddy Frank. And for any new readers that may be reading this.... Frank is formally known as Frank Ochre, the tastiest color of Malabrigo, the tastiest yarn! I am also beginning a few new projects that will be holiday gifts for people that just might read my blog, so that is all that i will say about that.
More Knitting news, I am currently SUPER into cables. Maybe it's the season, I dunno. But I am all consumed with cabling. I recently purchased the Vogue Stitchionary vol. 2 Cables.
