You might call me crazy

February 9, 2009

but I just couldn’t resist. Last wednesday I went with fourchette and her friend to lang yarns in reiden. Yarn sale. And that’s the result:

(Sorry for the bad picture, but the colors are more real without flash. And I couldn’t wait til the next sunny day…)

That’s yarn for three projects! I mean three sweater projects. Nobody knows when I am actually going to knit this, but then, just one after another.

I couldn’t really enjoy my findings, because – stupid, stupid, I know, I left one of my favorite knitting books in the store. Knitting Nature. But the ladies at Lang Yarns were kind enough to send it back to me! Thank you!

The Cost of Babysitting

February 2, 2009

Finally I completed one depth and generated new ones, but on the other side. I have a good friend who volunteered (more or less) babysitting for the business christmas dinner. More or less because I kind of had to talk her into it (I’m sure in the afterthought she doesn’t understand why, the kids were most peaceful. And seriously telling about 3 bedside stories isn’t that bad, is it?) so I promised to knit her something. And because babysitting really is a kind task to the stressed parents, what could have suited better than Humanity?

And here they are the second FO in 2009!
