Short Row a Go- Go.

Weird title, but that's what I keep thinking!

Firstly, the weather here has been crap, and so I am needing to take these photos inside,and it's hard to get the photos looking right in low light with no flash, so I apologize for that.


First, another couple of photos of the multi-directional scarf.





This was a really fast knit.



Secondly, here are some updated photos of my Lady Eleanor. This is the first thing I've knitted for myself in AGES!



Going to be weaving in a lot of ends!












Now, I think I mentioned before that I have bought a lot of yarn for this, but people from the knitty board also sent me their scraps. I decided to do earth tones and wasn't sure what to do with the gorgeous jewel tones I had received. So, I bought a shitload more yarn and am making a second Lady E, this one will be donated to my dad's agency, for the next silent auction. Really need to get some photos of this in the sun, but here are a few photos...






So, that's what I've been up to lately. This is after all, first and foremost, a knitting blog.

What do I do when I'm sad?

And lately I have been very, very sad.

I knit like crazy. I made this yesterday. It's a scarf and hat made from three skeins of Noro Transitions, for my Uncle's birthday.

The photos are not great, but I feel like crap and am, as aforementioned, very sad. So you'll forgive me, please.




The other thing I do when I'm sad? I change my hair. I'm growing it to donate again, but I had some caramel highlights put in. Here is another crappy photo, of moi, taken with the mac. I look like crap, I'm sick and have been crying a lot, but you can sort of see the hair.




Did it work? Well, not really. But it's ok. I'll cease the crying, someday.
