Wool & Words

Finished the Shapely Tank. Here it is on a hanger:

Trust me: it's Very Shapely on. I am officially past my tank/cami curse. The trick: knit the right size (duh!). I think I'd like it as a tee...

I feel very behind in posting about what's going on, so here are the highlights to get caught up:

--Attended 3 fantastic classes at Main Street with Annie Modesitt. She's an incredibly good teacher and I felt absolutely empowered when I was finished with her classes. Thanks Annie for such a great time!

--I'm deeply entrenched in data entry. This is some slow, mindnumbingly boring stuff. The worst part is that I have to use my hands to do it...so I can't even use knitting as a way to muddle through. Any suggestions on how I can make it more enjoyable?

--Steve's watching basketball. Steve will be watching basketball for the next 2 weeks. I'll be entering data for that long, so I guess it's a blessing! Love March Madness!

--I'm planning a trip to Chicago at the end of the month for a conference. I'm driving there. From Georgia. Insanity!

--I'm still waiting for word from the bank that my account is all fixed. Thanks for all the good thoughts. I've been pretty calm about it, but I know that I'm a lucky girl...

--Knitting: Trying to finish the green tee that I was working on a couple of weeks ago. At the halfway point on the front. It will never end. Also working on a sock for Steve--if he's really good, he might even get a pair. And then there's the Pearl Buck, which is stalled while I get this green thing done. Sigh.

--Thinking about Knitting: A Debbie Bliss summer cardi from the cover of Wish You Were Here in that blue Cotton Patine that I was moneying around with last summer. I think I've found the perfect fusion of yarn and pattern...finally. Also planning the Yoga Wrap from Vogue Knitting Winter 2005/06 in this gorgeous blue/green Plymouth Suri Merino, 'cause nothing says "Summer Knitting" like merino and alpaca.
