Yarn harlot - awesome knitter

Yarn Harlot: Not Really a Sprint

My mom who knits a lot pointed me in the direction of this blog by the yarn harlot. Her posts are fun and informative. This specific posts is about her week long marathon making the doctor who scarf. She is an insanely fast knitter. She has YouTube videos and books and twitter! I have even asked her for her opinion on needles to get a couple weeks ago. Gave me breast advise. Buy as I need them.

Whats new

Well its been almost a year since I've posted. No time like the present they say.

Haven't been to a convention since cvi. I'll have to post about that soon.

I don't have my stormtrooper armor anymore. It did go to a good home and will be taken care of. Trust me I'm not done costuming. I still have like 9 costumes left to wear and more will be made.

Lately I've been into knitting. Yes I said it knitting. Its fun and relaxing til I have to rip it out and start from scratch. Or knot my yarn. I've made several things including a hat, scarf and arm warmer set for myself. A scarf for a dog. Yes I said it. Scarves for my cousin's girls. A hat and several burp clothes for my cousin's new baby. A mini blanket for a friend's cat. A coaster set for a friend. Next I'll be making a sweater out of my knit book knits for nerds.

I'll try to keep up with blogging more. There is a pattern I made for a hat that I will post up as well.
