But, in the last week, I went here:
Also, does anybody notice anything...wrong with this picture?
The shrug has hit some...shall we say roadblocks? in the end stages, due to my own airheadedness and the fact that knitting references the world over lied to me. Or perhaps I'm just not as good at Kitchener stitch as I expected. (I suspect it's the first.) I'm afraid this is going to end up closer to the "learning experiences" end of the spectrum than the "objet d'art" end, which is mildly disappointing. On the other hand, I may wear it anyway, because I MADE IT. Take that!
I came home sick today with a fever and some cold-like symptoms. Mostly, the whole thing involved me doing some knitting and watching a lot of the first season of Gilmore Girls. (Rory just ran away to the Elder Gilmores' and is about to tell Dean, "I love you, you idiot!" Good times.) Now I've moved on to my favorite episode of 30 Rock, in which the hot guy, The Hair, asks Liz out. She makes Star Wars/Star Trek jokes. It's great. (Ack! I just got spoiled for the future of Friday Night Lights, which just goes to show why old commercials can be dangerous. Curse you, Tivo!)
Aren't you sad that I didn't blog all week? So much excitement!
...Right.

I completely loathe Kitchener stitch, I gotta say. I constantly find ways of getting around it. Never fear, darlin, just finish the durned thing and wear it to your content! The best thing about Finished Objects is that they are...well...Finished!
Truer words have never been spoken! I liked working on the shrug just fine, but having it done is even better! Now...what to knit next?
