    Yesterday I finished knitting my first pair of socks! The pattern is here, and I used Cascade sock yarn, which I quite like. A satisfying project indeed.

    This Is Accurate, You Should Watch It of the Day: Short blurb describing the video above as being a rather observant parody trailer in which actors self-referentially reenact many clichés often utilized by academy award-baiting films.

    [cracked.]

    Emphatic approval!

    I’m wearing the scarf to end all scarves. Measuring in at approximately 10 feet (i.e. nearly twice as long as I am), it is a behemoth. 6 skeins of Debbie Bliss Fez. A never-ending train of k4, p4 on size US9 (5.5mm) needles. My science may not being going so well at the moment, but dagnabbit, I did something.

  9. pet peeve

    Crossword puzzles in which the same answer appears twice. I don’t care if the clues are different, or it’s used once across and once down. Pitiful!

    I knitted a Moebius Scarf! It turned out a little big, but it’s soft and comfy. The yarn is Misti Alpaca Chunky. I’ll probably make this again in another color. It’s a very easy little project, and it’s so satisfying when you can finish something in one or two days.
I’m knitting up a storm this weekend! I’m working on a two-color scarf and fingerless mitts. I’m going to try some cabling at some point also. I’m slightly obsessed at the moment.

  14. It’s very cold in Chicago today, much like the Swiss Alps. Except flatter. And lower. And sans snow… for now.
