You read the title right. I killed my internets. Okay, so right now it's hanging on by a finger, but I am planning on killing my internets. Seriously, it's way too expensive to plug into the information highway. Especially since I get on for "free" at school and (for real) free at work. So the blog will be updated less than it usually is and Josie, well, until she figures out how to steal internets, will be even less. Let's get a double sad face. Speaking of faces, ever notice how no one looks good when they're at a computer? Ever? Their faces are all contorted...
Now, I have TONS of knitting news. First on our knitting tour is the land of Finished Objects.
That image is huge. Or maybe it's just me. But I finished the cornflower blue mitts I now call, "No Goose Fingerless Mitts" featuring mama and baby ducks. They're sewn on with felt rather well. Note to whoever buys them: don't turn them inside out. Seriously, not a pretty sight. What can I say? I'm a knitter not a sewer. That's an understatement. I can knit with the best of them. I cannot sew with even the worst of them.
I also finished my lilac alpaca hat. I was going to sell it, but I wear it so much that it's probably not sellable, I mean seriously, who wants an already worn hat? Not me. Unless I'm the one in it. How could I not wear it though??
Raaar! I call it a monster hat. It has a heart, too. If you look on the right hand side, there's a sliver of the heart. I'll try and take a picture, but I will most likely forget to or something. Actually, once i put it on I don't take it off and I've worn it enough in the past two days.
Sometimes I shower in it. Just kidding... or am I? You can decide... or ask Josephine.
Last on my "finished" objects are two skeins I dyed with some kool-aidizzle:
Oooh. Fun, fun. They turned out spectacular. Seriously look at them. That's with KOOL-AID, BITCH!
Someone needs to buy them because they're staring at me in their beauty, waiting for me to use them and I cannot. I CANNOT.
OKAY. The fingerless gloves and yarns are for sale at the Three Peas Shopette.
In other news, I'm working on my first pair of socks. Like the dumb knitting genius I think I am, I decided to knit them from the toe up. I'm knitting both at the same time so I don't forget the pattern when I knit the other one. Well, my home dog is here now. Have to get off these here internets.
Much love to all.
