Stuff

So, I was without internet access for a week.

And moved one kid to college. She's doing well. Experiencing the usual culture shock that is dorm living and higher education.

And waited for another kid to move himself to college. Yikes, into an apartment with four other boys. Yikes again! He and his friend and roommate rented a Uhaul and drove their crap into the city. He says he likes it. He says he's broke. He says he may have another job. He says he's doing lots of school work.

And I've knit lots of little bits and bobs. Well, maybe not lots. But some here and there. I don't feel like taking pictures and posting them right now. I'm going to wait until my computer is back to normal. I'm getting a new motherboard tomorrow. The ethernet card is apparently welded to the motherboard so they have to replace it. Joy of joys! Anyway, I knit a multi-directional scarf with Patons SWS. I had 2 balls I had bought to make a felted something or other and never did. I ended up needing to buy a third ball. It's a nice heavy scarf. I'll probably give it to someone. Summer of Socks 08 ended last week? Yeah, last week. After the third bi-weekly period I sort of got disenchanted with the whole thing. There were some words between a participant and a mod in the Ravelry group and it just rubbed me the wrong way. I'm in the middle of a pair or two of socks. Nothing special. Oh, I am also in the middle of a Flower Basket Shawl. I've always had trouble with lace shawl type things. I get messed up where I am in the pattern and if I make a mistake I have difficulty ripping back to it to fix it. I don't know. Anyway, this one has been very successful so far. I'm using Koigu Kersti I had in the stash (like most of my projects lately) and I love it.

So, to come, pictures of WIP's. And maybe a trip to a LYS.
