Alright, some sleep did me plenty of good! I feel ready to go today. Although I'm not sure where I'm going. lol
Let's see, I'll start with Secret Pal. My Pal got her package yesterday!! She was very excited. Which makes me tickled, I was really worried. She doesn't have an amazon wishlist or anything so I have to kinda poke around and figure out what she likes. We have lots of email conversations. Although I'm mildly worried about her finding out who I am, I don't really think she sits around online all day reading random blogs. So I will post a real quick picture of what I sent. pic deleted* I'll tell ya what though, I felt like an unofficial part of Project Spectrum doing this! (Which is funny because I actually sent her a skein of the PS sock yarn)
Next...have you seen the newest Mama E colorways? Especially Beauregarde the official PS sock yarn. Ahhh the purpley-ness of it! *cough* SP, if you don't plan on buying that for me, I do. lol It's delicious. (Personally I still liked the name Violaceous better...but oh well) All of these acronyms are starting to drive me nuts. lol
The good thing is I have some down time before I need to get started on next month's presents for SP. Though my MP still needs to get finished, I'm at the end pretty much, I just need to motivate myself. So right now I'm switching between that and the Jaywalkers. Those are coming along nicely. Maybe I'll even make a pair for myself at some point. lol Right now the Hedera pattern is calling my name. Once again, needing to pace myself. A little at a time Crystal. First I'll do the Jaywalkers, then Thuja (which I've decided to give to my friend Scott because he says he loses socks), maybe then I can get around to the Hedera socks for myself. Jamie's socks don't need to be done til mid-October. It's the dyeing that scares me. I'm convinced I'll screw it up. lol Today, during nap time, I intend to try my hand at dyeing for the first time. I'm going to use the garage to dry because it's hot in there and we don't do anything else with it really. Besides, it's still damp from yesterday.
I hope it doesn't rain again, Justin has his motorcycle.
*editor's note: Since I intend to nominate my SP for the best pal ever, I wanted to make sure to delete all pictures of the things I sent to my other SP.
First, I must confess my name isn't Kitty, or anything even close. It just comes from an affinity for cats. Second, I love to craft, create, and imagine. I can draw a bit, knit a lot, and sew just enough to get by. My world revolves around the loves of my life; my three children.
Anything more you want to know about me is on Ravelry or check me out on FB!
*Disclaimer!*
I'm totally crazy. The patterns I offer are often variations of other patterns, things I have reverse engineered. I don't claim to be wonderful and smart and an all-knowing designer. So enjoy them!.
