I realize that I haven’t given an Owls update. Oh yeah, I finished it.

It’s awesome. It fits. It’s super warm. Good thing I only made elbow length sleeves, or I would die from heat exhaustion! I’ve only sewn on the button eyes for one owl, and quite honestly, I think I love it that way. I’m not so sure I’ll sew on the rest. This is something I’ll need to ponder for a while.

So. The Mitt-A-Long. I have started and frogged those dang things so many times…..I give up. The mitts might have to wait until September. I’m so frustrated with them, I could spit. So, basically, I’m not knitting anything right now. I may give the mitts one more go, and if I fail again, they go in the corner. It’s time to start nosing around for some fingering weight yarn for a shawl. Maybe Entomology. Not sure.
I shall be gone up north, in the woods, for a few days. Find me if you can!
Yes, I have the ipod working overtime. Erin McCarley, Arcade Fire, Pete Yorn, and a little Shanie Twain. Have a good weekend kids!

The sweater is beautiful and looks great on you! I like it with just the two buttons. I may do the same on mine. Then again, it is awefully cute with buttons all the way around.
