But I haven’t had my computer for over a week. I hope to get it back on Tuesday (*crosses fingers*).

A couple of pictures:


This is the bag that Chantal sent me as part of my final gift. It’s the perfect size for my altoids-tin of knitting notions (decorated by Chantal), my smaller pair of yarn scissors, and a little bottle of hand lotion. And, well, it’s got a (plastic) frog pinned onto it, so it’s automatically cool.

The koigu pictured is what I bought for myself at Yarnings last Sunday. Yes, I know, I’m not supposed to buy yarn until MDSW. Fine, I won’t buy anything in the rest of May. But I needed yarn for Jody’s Natalya gauntlets (for me, pattern by Jody), and I couldn’t decide which color to use. I’ve settled on stranding the green and the cooler yellow together. I don’t know what I’ll do with the warmer yellow, but it’s not being given away…


This is my version of Magknits’s Sophie. It’s got a flap, and a strap that will hopefully be long enough to go over my shoulder. I have yet to felt it, and I haven’t quite decided how I’m going to secure the flap. I’m thinking snaps.
