Quiet Weekend leads to Nasty Head Cold for Local Girlie
Okay. Mission Accomplished! Very quiet weekend (almost eerily quiet at times! Oooooooh! Oooooooh! That's my best eery ghost sound.) I got a LOT of knitting done and watched some good flicks! This weekend I watched Hellboy, Kill Bill Volume 1, KB Volume 2, and Conspiracy Theory (it was on TV) - and watched a heck of a lot of football on Sunday (yeee!). During this serious stretch of couch time, I finished Pia (pics are on their way - I am presently sans DigiCam - the sis is in Sunny Florida at the moment) Anyhoo, I sure love Pia. She came out quite cute and of course she was finished on a day that was inexplicably cold. Sigh.... Hopin' for a heat wave, folks. cue Martha and the Vandellas singing Heatwave...... I heart Motown.
So I was sick all day yesterday (YUCKERS) and continue to be so today....... But you know what that means? More couch time. LOL. It is kinda sad that the only way to subdue my slightly obsessive compulsive GO GO GO mentality is to be sick sick sick. And even sick time becomes productive time now that I have knitting......it's another enabler, but a healthy one, I swear!!
I also got somewhere with Lavender (from Rowan Summer Tweed Collection). She is my first grown up sized cable project! I started out by lengthening the ribbing a bit. I was reminded by Pia as I tried her on for the first time, that I have a long torso. (and short legs - yipee, right? haha) The belly button likes to poke out from Pia - which I don't really mind on a tank, but surely want to avoid on a sweater! I am about halfway through the first cable repeat on the back. It looks sooo cool! Again...pics forthcoming....
Another meeting of the Scissor Squad commences tomorrow night @ 8pm at Molten Java Coffee Roasters in Bethel, CT!!!!! All are welcome!!! :)
