Who Fooled You?
Every year I want to do an April Fool's prank on this site, but every year I choose not to because I'm afraid someone will take the prank as serious and it could cause a lot of trouble...you know, like saying I'm quitting the bead making business, or that I'm moving to Buenas Aires or I've adopted a kangaroo because the zoo had too many...but alas, I wuss out and don't pull the prank afterall...did you get pranked today? So far, I must say its been a pretty tame day...no outrageous gags...
I know how to Continental knit now...woohoo to that...Actually, we learned not only to continental, but also to do fair isle at the same time...I'm actually knitting with yarn in both hands now, a little throw here, a little conti there...its fantastic...loves it...we didn't get to see how to purl in Continental, (at least the instructor never made it around to us to demonstrate) so I'll just refer to some of my TiVo'd KNitty Gritty episodes...I've seen such quick knitting/purling on there that I could watch some of the guests forever...Its fun and I'm glad I know how to do it...
Brian is leaving on business for 3 whole days this week, so I'll be running the show alone...loud music, late nights, too much hershey's syrup, you know the drill...chocolate ice cream and pizza every day! well, not really, that actually sounds kinda nauseating right after eating dinner, but I will get stuff done here, I'm sure...like pics and shipping and beads etc...I'm ready to jump on the torch, indeed...
And so, now that I have the hiccups, I'm gonna go get some water and try to get further on my felted tote from yesterday's class..now that I have this new knowledge of the fast and furious knitting technique, i'm gonna give it a whirl...maybe I won't wind up with a fistful of knots...I can only hope...
