Pic of me


I have finally added a picture of myself. I look really serious, I know, but it's serious business getting your picture taken!!! hahaha

Anyway, here is a picture of myself, with a couple of friends, before my haircut.

New look me

I tried this last night, but it didn't work. Lets hope it goes through today. I have a new look - short hair. I've had it all pretty much all cut off, and really like the new look. It was a spur-of-the-moment thing, but I really don't regret getting it done. I will get a picture taken later today, and see about getting it up here.
On the knitting front, I've now finished three cloths in the last three days. Am now working on a hooded scarf from the Lionbrand website. I've also taken some things off the needles, just decided that I really wasn't that into them. Others, that are still languishing will be attended to sometime. Part of their problem, I dont know where I've put their pattern. I'm sure I will be able to track them down, though. Then, maybe, I will have most of my needles back.

THANK GOODNESS

It has been decided that this bloh of mine isn't a spam one after all. I am very grateful for that. I was a tad concerned about whether I'd ever be able to post anything.
I'm actually going through a scarf knitting stage at the moment, encouraged by the cold weather. The scarf I have on the needles at the moment is one done with two sizes of needles. The needles I am using are 5mm, and 12mm. It is done in garter stitch, and you do a whole row of one set of needles, and a whole row in the other size. It makes the scarf look lacy, without the work involved. You can really use any wool, any needles.

Trucking along

  So, we are waiting for the biopsy to happen. We could be waiting for up to a week, which is not easy; but there is nothing we can do about...
