There is a creeper in my cabinet! If you don't know, its a character from the game "Minecraft." My daughter got a little figure and put him in the cabinet. I think he (she?) looks really cute there so I left it and took a picture. No it's not craft related but I thought it was cute.
I washed the scarf and it flattened out. I'm a little disappointed in the yarn. It's really soft in the ball but when I washed it (on hot, not the way it says on the label) it came out really stiff and almost scratchy. I dried it on hot (not the instructions on the label) and it came back a little softer but not as nice as it was before I washed it. I usually wash things on cold but with the lice issue I was being careful with the hot water. I have to tuck the ends in and then I'll take a picture. I made one of the fingerless mitts. It wasn't hard but I kept reading it wrong and having to rip out. The pattern is in reverse stockinette but I don't like to purl so much, so I reversed the knits and purls and then turned it right side out when I was done. It was something Amy Beth (Fat Squirrel Speaks) suggested and it works. I've been working on the stripy socks a little too. It has now become my waiting room knitting. I think that's all the crafting.
I have listened to a bunch of podcasts. Even though I wasn't done with Yarnivore I listened to a new one from England called Dancing Geek. He is so funny and his podcasts are really long. He only has about seven episodes so it will be easy to catch up and go back to Yarnivore. I don't know why but for some reason my computer hasn't been running well so some of the podcasts have been hard to watch. I have them all watched/ listened to now (well the ones with new episodes) so I think I may play WOW tomorrow.
I think that's it. I guess it's back to a boring life. lol I'll leave you with a picture of an orange tree, I'll see you next time.
