I finally got over my Glowsticking 1 day freak out obsession. Now I am back to knitting. I have two active projects on needles.
The first one is a cardigan for myself that is taking forever but is beautiful. Its the Rambling Rose Cardigan from Interweave. Luckily I decided to knit in the round because I don't think I would ever finish it if I had accomplished the front and then had to start over for the back! Oye!
The owlie "No-No's" are coming to mind (see "Wesley The Owl" by Stacey O'Brien). Very serious, "No, No, No" head shaking.
My other project is for my future Enchanted Doll. I have no idea when I will be able to afford one but I am knitting stuff for it anyway. I have started with the smallest needles I could get from Hobby Lobby but will special order (or make) smaller ones in the future. Right now I am sticking to lace and will move up to cables later. I actually intend to sell my prototypes. Hooray 4 Etsy! I am having an easier time visualizing a knitting project when it is smaller.
Fennec still has a sweater brewing in my head. It already has a name - Dapper. How dorky am I? I have a few different versions but recently was inspired by the concept of armor. I don't want the actual sweater to look like battle gear but I think constructing the layout similar to armor will give it the detailed "togetherness" I have been struggling with. While Googling horse armor, I came across this gentleman's interesting website. Love it!
There is no way either of my dogs would put up with any of this but my imagination is very satisfied. From there, I Grandpa Simpsoned my way over to this Fairy Festival. I'm totally going next year! Forget attending, I'm just gonna move there.
Which makes me think of a great idea for a housing community. Omg! I wish you could see what I see. But now I can't tell you. It was just that good of an idea. I actually typed an entire paragraph about how cool it was until I got to the end and realized that it actually was cool and not just me being myself. So, I deleted it...because I may copyright/patent the idea. :)
