Oh and I WENT TO A DAR WILLIAMS CONCERT!!!!!! SHE IS MY FAVORITE MUSICIAN IN THE WORLD AND IT MADE ME ENTIRE LIFE!!!! IT WAS THE BEST TIME I'VE EVER HAD.

So.

I came back from India yesterday. We came in via Paris...on air France...in premium seating. The seats were weird. We got free anti-wrinkle cream. I watched Brides Maids and cried. Then I watched Patiala House and cried more...it was great. I have directly and indirectly converted at least two people from non-knitters to knitters!!! whooohoo! thats all for now.

Almost Perfect  By: Brian Katcher  Book Preview
I really enjoyed this book. It's about this boy (Logan); who lives in a small town in Missouri. He has just been dumped by his girlfriend, and after being with her for four years Logan is having a hard time recovering.when a new girl comes into school (Sage) and he is almost instantly transfixed. As they become friends Logan begins to realize that there is something Sage is hiding- something that could change jeopardize their new friendship, and change both of their lives for ever.

Also I'm in India. I'm sort of sick feeling. And addicted to figment

HATS HATS HATS (more hats?)

 So I went to Iowa... in Iowa my aunt took me to Micheal's. At Micheal's I found some really pretty yarn; we bought it (thank you auntie Lori). we went home ( to my aunt's house in Iowa that is) and  I decided I wanted to knit a hat. To find a pattern I looked to my favorite search engine...GOOGLE!  I found the perfect pattern and became obsessed. Within a few days I had finished my hat. I have enough yarn to make another one! YYYYYAAAYYYAAY! here is a pic! I love my lovely hat!

Earlier Projects

I made some stuff a while ago that I did not have time to put up on my blog here it is:

 A purse I knit for my friend/sister:                                                               An Ipod case I knit for my father:

 

 

My latest project

Lately I've been knitting curtain ties for all the curtains in my house there are 12 windows so 24 curtain ties total. I have 11 ties done... they are pretty quick to finish I  can do around 3 or 4 a day. Sometimes they get boring, so I have to listen to music or watch a movie while I knit. On a more random note I've been sorta sick lately and I have a sore throat (which is annoying) so I started taking allergy meds (zyrtec) and guess what?! I'm getting better yaaaay! also tomorrow I'm going to San Diego to meet one of my mom's college friends...I'm really exited!

hi Y'all!

I have come to the desision that I WILL talk about book, but WILL NOT change the blog title. thank you.
Moving on I have officially lost my size 11 circular knitting needles. I am sad. I have also lost a mini-ball of the wooly-blue yarn.

Now for the good news. I got a basket as a gif, and it is perfect for all my yarn. Next I cleaned out my closet and found some more really pretty yarn! Photos to come...  Also I knit my friend a cell phone sock/case thing. if anyone is interested or wants one post a comment with the color preference and dimensions of your phone.

Books?

When I started this blog I was obsessively knitting and listening to music. Then I got this book called My Sister's Keeper it's by Jodi Picoult. It is also AMAZING! So I was thinking maybe I should add books to the title too!
 What do ya think?

If anyone ever needs a book to read then I highly recommend my sisters keeper to anyone who likes moving literature about cancer.

I do think I'll start giving book recommendations on this blog though. More info to come on that soon.

We got the yarn now for the Music

In this blog's very shot life we've talked too little about the music portion of this blog. For music I'll just talk about the music I listen to and I'll give recommendations sometimes! K, so recently I bought myself the Album The Beauty of the Rain by Dar Williams! I love it as of now. Lately I've been listening to A LOT  of Dar Williams music. I love it all!

Quick Yarn Update:
Don't tell anyone but I'm taking a break from my crochet attempts to just knit

Random Info:
I'm going to go eat some Chipotle!!!! yay!

Tunisian Crocheting!

So, in 2009 I got a few things for x-mas

1. yarn (blue-ish-green)
2. yarn  (yellow/orange/red/pink)
3. Tunisian Crochet hook
4. card with info about a web site that would teach me how to Tunisian crochet

                                        After about a moth I thoroughly  forgot about these items. Then I found the hook and decided why not learn? I went to the website and found no useful info, so I googled it. I found a tutorial video and started trying! So far I'm failing miserably... does anyone have any tips for me?

Yarn:

So right now, i've just been trying to teach myself to tunisian crochet! not working more to come on that!

Well
