Knitting in real life

ok so it turns out that real life does not only get in the way of such fun things as internetting and writing fanfiction, it also gets in the way of crafting. Between single mothering and schooling, paying bills, shopping and all the other fun fun things that make up a 22 year olds life these days, there has been no time for the crafty therapy that keeps me sane. So some would figure that the flu that had me in bed all of last week was a godsend as it got me knitting again. (And if i had been thinking clearly at the time instead of spending half my concious moments praying for death, and the other half pleading with god not to et me die, i probably would have agreed.)

so whats new on the knitting needles you ask?

well i have finished my second pigtail hat, and i think i have all the kinks worked out of the pattern and i quite like the results. A pigtail hat is an absolute essential for any girl living in a cold climate, how else can you keep your head from freezing, whilst also showing off your love for pigtails?




have also started a feather and fan scarf in my footy teams colours, hoping to get this finished off soon so i can start on a matching beanie.










there have been no other crafty projects in sight other than these, however my daughter got lots of jewelry for her 4th birthday the other week so i am hoping to get some cash together and make her a jewelry box.

right well i'm off to do more of those aforementioned real life things, like talk to my teachers about making up a biology exam how fuckin fun!

peace out
