Last night, I finished knitting a scarf, and I blocked it right on top of my bed. Just after I had laid it all out, I realized that I needed that space to sleep.

I was afraid to disturb the scarf after spending all that time blocking it -- and besides I fit on the couch better than the scarf would -- so I dragged my pillows and blanket over and spent the night curled up there :D

Pretty happy with this scarf now that it is done; I'd just about entered the phase where I hated it and wanted it to be over with and could it please be over with now is it long enough yet? no? is it long enough yet? is it there yet is it there yet is it there yet. And now it is done.



That left me with just one WIP in Ravelry, and that one I haven't touched in months, so I put that in hibernate mode.... and now I have no WIPs listed. I feel strangely empty inside; must figure out what to do next.

Maybe it's time to learn colorwork.

I am having a lot of fun with this: http://www.knittersreview.com/article_how_to.asp?article=/review/profile/020704_a.asp

It's a very simple lace-like pattern, but it's pretty and knits up fast.

I am hitting up Webs today for some supplies, and I'm going to get some bigger bamboo needles to use that pattern for a blanket. I think it'll turn out nicely. :)

I love that you gave up your bed for a scarf :)
