Far away!

I know that I posted this song earlier, but some lyrics relate to how I feel. "I wish I could fly and magically appear and disappear. I wish I could fly. I'd fly far away from here."

I need a day off

I had a reading done by a medium the other day. She was great and one thing that she said was that I need a day off. A day where I don't have to worry about anything. I was thinking, "Don't I know it." I know that it happen until the semester is over. I would just sit and watch movies and knit! Just a little over a month!

Creating a book

I believe that a crochet magazine that I really enjoyed has been cancelled.It had some really nice and modern patterns. The same thing occurred to a knitting magazine that I liked, a couple of years ago. So, I am thinking, what if I create my own? I have created a couple of intarsia knitting charts. I also have books of different stitches. I should start experimenting with them. Then do some writing and see where if leads.

Some progress

I have been trying to get work done for, but my head still feels a little dead from break. I think that I am just tired. I still find some time to knit. My favorite thing to do while knitting is watch TV. So I will put on a TV show on my computer and knit.

I stated in an earlier post that I am working on a sontag shawl for someone. I started it 8 days ago and I have gotten a bit done. I would say that I am about halfway done.

It may not look like a shawl at the moment because it has to done on circular needles since each row increases in length.

New poll question

I just added a new poll question. I am trying to make my blog more about crafts, so that is what the poll question is about. "What is your favorite craft?" My answer would have to be needlework. I knit and crochet whenever I have free time. I would love to learn to sew and there are many other craft projects I want to try. Thank you pinterest!

Craft Idea

I want to try and make this. It is called The I love Paris Wrap. It looks pretty and I also love the name. I would love to travel to Paris someday.

I just want to knit

Well, classes start again tomorrow and I don't want to go. My mind is still in vacation time and I just to work on my shawl. I have worked on it for a week and I have gotten a bit done. I just need to breathe and get my work done so I can knit in my free time.

Business Cards

I jokingly said something the other day about getting business cards to sell my projects or if people want to make a request. Then my mother said that it is a good idea. There is a woman that I am making a shawl for right now. She might say to other people where she got it from and that may mean more costumers for me. So I think I will get some business cards.

One day more!

One day more until spring break!!!

SNOW DAY!!!

We have a snow day today! My college cancelled classes for the day. That hasn't happened for about ten years. I got to sleep in and now I am knitting. I probably will do some work later. No word about the hockey game yet. I hope that the weather will clear up for that tonight.

I survived!

I finished my Calc test and I finished my circuit during class time and I was able to leave early. It also got into the upper fifties today. So, I stopped at the local coffee shop and got a frozen drink. My college hockey team is in the NCAAs and my friends and I got tickets for the first game tomorrow night(if the weather isn't too bad.

Tonight I am knitting and going to bed before midnight!!!

Here is a little 2Cellos for the night. Love these guys!

Almost There!

Well, it is the last week of school before spring break. I cannot wait. I really just have to through tomorrow and the rest of the week should go smoothly. Fingers crossed!!! And that means more knitting!!!

Craziness!!!

Well, I am getting frustrated. I am trying to get a motor running for my circuit in my digital electronics class, but it seems to get worse. It makes me want to pull my hair out!
I need music to claim me down. I just want to knit!

Crafter at Heart!

I had someone ask me to make them a shawl a little while ago. Apparently, she thought I did a good job because she wants me to make a sontag shawl for her. I just have hear back from if this pattern is good and what color she wants. 

She does Civil War reenactments and maybe there will be other women who would like to have the shawls that I make. Maybe I have started a side business.

Before I hear back from her and I have free time, I have been knitting this lace shawl. It is quick and easy. When I started to knit it, I felt right at home. I has been weeks since I had crafted anything. The most I have used my hands for is my digital electronics class. But I am a knitting/crocheter/crafter at heart and I need to remember that.
