I have a terrible cold. I'm coughing and not sleeping (hence the 4AM post) and I'm exhausted!!! At least there's Ravelry to keep me entertained. I would knit if I weren't so damned tired. I'm up because I was feeling so sad about keeping my fiancé awake. It's not his fault that I can't sleep, and he shouldn't have to suffer.
I frogged Endpaper on the weekend. It was very sad, but they just weren't going to fit. I had to go up a needle size, which hopefully will help them to knit up faster, since I'm very slow with fair isle. It is fair isle, right? Not intarsia? Anyway, almost done the first repeat of the pattern and as soon as it's worth showing, I'll take a progress pic or two.
I guess I can post old progress pics can't I? I don't want to leave this post photo-less so enjoy pics of a knitting that no longer exists. Yay~! You can see more info on my ravelry page.
So here I am, browing blogs, and I discover a post about "dead girl"… please enjoy the stupidity. I know I did. XP
Anyone hear of Mystical Creation Yarns? Apparently she's run a bit of scam involving crap orders and playing dead… she recently created a second business, Visionary Yarns…
