Hot and knitty
It's been a hotty and knitty day here in ol' B-more. The boys went hiking and I got to spend some serious time on (don't look if your initals are BM) this. I'm happy how it's coming along I just need it to come along faster, the day's fast approaching and I'm used to knitting for myself, and I'm quite a bit wee-er than the man in question.
In the same knitting for other people that are your parents vein, I finished and sent my mom her b-day present, which is the design I'll be submitting to knitty (with minimum modification). It's so rockin'. I wish I could post the pix, alas, I havta wait until it gets rejected or until fall when the issue comes out.
Elsewhere in the knitdom, I, in one evening, the evening before the party, in fact, I whipped out this groovy little bag for Little Bit's friend's 4th b-day. It's my yarn, dyed with koolaid and then felted. Little Bit made the button as Zoe holds a special place in his kid heart. The party was fabulous, I seriously need a tramploline. Here's one of my favorite pic, get a dose of the flavor of my boy --
Oh, and I got some cotton from knitpicks, orange and red, I'm going to start a tank as soon as I get past all the deadlines.
Still feeling all hermitty. I'm sure everyone around these parts thinks I've gone addled and am slowly consuming my own digits, or I'm just the worst, flakiest friend in the freakin' world. I just can't help it though, for a brief moment in the evening, I think I might wanna go out, see people, chat it up, and then I get all twitchy, all umm...all something that lets me know that that's totally the very last thing I want to do in the entire world and really the only thing that doesn't sound mind-numbingly terrible is sitting on my couch, munching grapes and knitting. And here starts my career as a knitting agoraphobe.
Except not really. I did recently go out ON AN AUDITION FOR A MOVIE! Strange, eh? I'm no actor. It was a fluke but the director called and said he really wanted me but only had a part for an old old man or a middle aged woman and that he'd like to use me later and would I be interested in working on the production team. I said HELL YEAH. Cool, no?
