I'm back from Austin. It was AWESOME!!!! To Dave and Stephanie, you ROCK!!! I had such a good time at your house!!! I got to teach Stephanie to knit (that was awesome!!!) and I got to visit Hill Country Weavers. Here is Sockina Cotton, with wich I'm going to make these socks. I'm also pretty sure I spotted Vickie Howell. When I got up really early this morning, it was cold in Austin, and it's

I FINALLY got my big reasearch paper for AP European History (Henceforth AP Euro, or just Euro) done. It was only 7 1/2 pages, instead of ten, but OH WELL, I was just really glad to get it done. (I totally procrastinated). I'm really excited to be going to Austin to visit my Aunt & Uncle next week.I should start thinking about Holiday knitting, but I'm not sure what I want to make for whom.

Dad's socks are done. They were done Wednesday, in fact.But now I have all this other stuff to do before I go off to Austin for thanksgiving. And I have Tap Workshop, cause when we get back, I'm planning on being in my school's musical this year - Thoroughly Modern Millie. No, I am not planning on trying out for Millie, I don't have the voice.But it's my last chance to be in my high school's

Today I don't have school (1st quarter grades - all good, except AP Euro - ack!!!!!) so I'm trying to do the homework that I didn't do all weekend.I wish I could post a long, Harlot-esque post, but a) I don't have that much to write about and b) I don't have the time to write about it. I am a high school student (not for too much longer though, thank God) and I have to work on raising that AP

While it's too late to do NaBloPoMo, and I won't be doing NaNoWriMo, because I don't think I can attempt writing a novel yet, I am going to do NaKniSweMo. Also NaCoAppMo, [National College Application Month] (Of my own invetion) cause I want to get the darn applications in before Thanksgiving.So I cast on for a top down raglan last night. We'll see how it goes.

So, see that sweater over under WIPs on the side bar? Well, since I am too lazy busy to take a pic of it my self, I will tell you it looks most like this, although I am not as far along (too many other things to do). TTYL.

So. Super busy. College apps, AP classes, other activies....So I was really glad I was going to have tommorrow off, until my Dad decided to haul me off to OSU to visit. Yup. SO not my idea of a good friday. I was hoping to put pics on here, of stuff I've finished lately. Nothing against OSU, but come on, it IS my day off. I didn't get too many of those last summer.Well, I will leave you with some

Fall is here in Oregon. It is raining. Some one's gonna hate me for saying this, but I love it when it rains.However, this fall is kinda sucky so far. And I have to fill out college apps (dang it, blogger, you don't have strike through!!!!)Anyway, this tree is in my backyard. Yeah. And it grew out of my Aunt's compost pile too. Impressive, eh?New WIPs (actually, not all of them are new):Log

So for the past couple of years, like since seventh grade, it always feels like September is going up that first hill of the roller coaster. This week it's gotten slower, and slower, and next week I'll be on a Splash Mountain/Space Mountain/California Screamin' combination that feature lots of twists and hills and a few loops. And it will continue this way until May 30, my last day of high school

Oh, this is such a great quote from the Yarn Harlot:"It's a beautiful city, and there is something spectacular everywhere you look, but it's very hard to get close to all the really interesting stuff. (Like the White House, or the President. Pity. There are some questions I would like to ask him. )"Find the rest here.

So, since I finished another project (Look at the progress bars....yup)(I worked on it at the 1st home game of the season...which we won....DARN...65-12).So now that the new knitty is up, I can go start something else!!!!(No really, the more games we win, the more playoffs I have to go to...and playoffs in November and December SUCK).School is great, English and Band are great.(Oh, wait, it's not

I know that sounds weird, but I can alwasys think of what to say, but I can never think of a good title for it.Today was my "last first day of school" (go read the Betsy-Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace if you don't know that I mean.) I was soo glad to be back, and I know people in almost all of my classes. I am very glad to see my fave teacher again. And - I'm not taking a science OR spanish!!!

Having got practically all of my summer reading done, I can recommend or not all of it. However, I will stay that the two best things I read were "My Antonia" by Willa Cather and "A Woman of no Importance" by Oscar Wilde.I am also about 77% done with my Lipstick/back to school shrug.And I have only two more days of work!!!!!I am kind of looking forward to going back to school for my SENIOR

So. I will get to the Stash enrichment, but first I am going to explain the WIPs on the side bar.Prepster Jacket: From Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet. In Cascade "Sierra Quattro." The back and one of the fronts are finished. On hold for now (see "Back to school shrug", below). I hope to finish this to wear it this fall.Dad's Socks: I only have one done (I got it done for his July 9th bday -

So. Daily blog tour. I stumble upon this. Then, this. So I go here. Then, out of curiosity, I go to the Mabel's Site. Sad. I always wanted to visit Mabel's, cause recently they started offering ice cream, and I thought, What could be better than ice cream and yarn sold in the same store?Reading about the closing of Lint on the Mabel's site I went over to the Lint site but didn't find anything

So, the other day (Monday) I got my braces off. Then I went to Molehill Farm.....and I bought that yarn. Cascade Yarns' Sissi. I've got one skein, which is 327 yards. I know I want to make a scarf, but which one? I am thinking about the branching out scarf from knitty. Anyone have any other ideas? Of course, the decision won't be made for a while....I'm too busy working on a Secret Project. The

So, in the US in July, we have the fourth of July. Oh, you live in Canada/Britain/Italy/virtually any other country in the world, and you too have the forth of July?Well, duh. But of course we Americans celebrate it as the day we declared independance from England.And July 1st is Canada Day.

Geez. A SENIOR next year. It's seems hard to believe that this part of my life is nearly over. As in the requiered-by-law school, and the living-at-home part. This has been my life for so many years, how could it be almost over already?However, since I want to be a teacher, I'll NEVER really be done with the whole school routine. But I kinda like having 2 and a half months off for the summer...

When it rains it pours.Currently, the speakers on this computer (my mom's computer) are dead/broken/worn out or maybe all of the above. The point is, they don't work.And the printer we bought JUST OVER TWO YEARS AGO will not print color. It needs a new printer head (what my mom thinks, anyway). And right now it's out of black ink, but my mom won't put in another cartridge (hahaha, wait till I

Today was a great day.In English this morning we finished "reading the film" Citizen Kane, which is based on the life of William Randolf Hearst (y'know, Hearst Magazines or what and San Simeon down in CA?) Anyway, I really liked the film.Then in spanish we did our presentation where we had to create a college and ours was in Venice, which was, of course, cool, and we got to skip the 2nd half

So, I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End on Friday, and it was good. I'm kind of surprised/disappointed that that it didn't make more than Spiderman 3 (which I have not seen). But it was definitely worth the $10.50 I paid to get in (where I live you can see a non-matinee for $8.50...ha!).So, go see Pirates 3!

So tommarow I leave for Disneyland, and I won't be back till monday. I thought I'd leave you with this. I worked on the gloves while watching Pirates of the Carribean 2: Dead Man's Chest on Satruday (I'm gonna see the third one on friday, and all I have to say is, I hope Orlando takes his shirt off more. You know what I mean). Have a good Memorial Day weekend!

Yes, it's May, my favorite month, and not just because my birthday's at the end of it. I really, really, like May.On Sunday I started this with a lovely wool cashmere blend that I frogged from another sweater, but since it is a wool angora blend, I have changed the pattern, and I think it's going to become a sweater coat.Oh, the buisiness. It continuth.more later.

Today's asortment of blogs includes Meg, Wendy, yarnstorm, and Vicky. Also The Purl Bee.I have been busy.FO!!!! It's the I Do shrug from knitty!Now I am knitting a Wendy johnson sock!

Ack! (Note: I just started reading the yarn harlot's blog, like, a week ago. But it's awesome!) So I was reading it, and it said she was in Pittsburgh (sp?). So I thought, why doesn't she come to MY TOWN? and she is!yay!

There seems to be a feb/march blogging hiatus! Never mind, I much enjoy the yarn harlot as well as wendy knits - I scroll through these as people like Meg don't post. All right, bad example. She posted on Monday......and she's traveling...still, I want to hear more about her travels since she, and a best-selling author, gets to do more of this than I, a high school student.Ah, well, the time will

Today my spanish teacher told me not to knit in class.Which was, like, the most bogus thing EVER, because we were watching a movie. HELLO, I can TOTALLY follow the plot line of two guatamalens who illegally imigrate to LA AND knit!!!!Besides, it's not even very good to just watch TV, it's better if you, y'know KNIT OR SOMETHING!!!!!(see this for more).Geez.Also, I have heard the BTW driving

Last night I was home, rather than going to my schools' Sadie Hawkins dance. None of the boys at my school are up to my standards....as far as I can tell right now. So I baked cupcakes. I used the recipe for cherry vanilla cupakes from Cupcake Bakeshop, only I didn't have any vanilla. I had mapaline, and lemon extract, BUT NO VANILLA (note to self: add vanilla to the grocery list). I also didn't

Well, just like this blogger, I haven't been getting much knitting done lately. I've been crocheting and working on school stuff because finals are next week. I had a huge project in my hidtory class due on monday, and I have two more projects and two more paper, plus in-class finals for three of my classes. And I started Driver's Ed on monday. yikes!!!I do, however, have the weekend after finals

Well, if I didn't know knitting was hot before, I defineatly do now.I was just looking at Urban Outfitters for spring stuff, when I stumbled upon this. That book was featured here in Knitty!And then, guess what I found? Debbie Stoller here and here. YEah!!!Well, I guess whoever buys stuff either is and avid knitter, or doesn't read Knitty!

Well, in my town, I've been getting SNOW! I didn't have school today, I already know I won't have it tommarow either. Yippee!Today I reorganized my yarn stash...which is **gasp** getting smaller. Oh well. I'll let it dwidle down to nothing, and then I'll have to go find a yarn shop sale (and a job) to go build it up with non-acrilic fibers. Wool for felting! Cotton!

So, today I got Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet from the library. I haven't knitted all day.But I love it cause it has the sassiness that only Stich 'n Bitch seems to have.Judging from the google search I just did, THERE ARE NO GOOD CROCHETING SITES OUT THERE!!!! Some I cound has air fresheners and TP COVERS!!!!! YUCK!!!Maybe I'll have to start one.More Later.

So last summer, I saw some yummy looking, extremely rich cupcakes in Sunset magazine.They inspired me to use the knitted cupcake pattern in Leigh Radford's One Skein.So I did.Just now, as I was reading this blog, I saw this link.Yuuuummmmyyyyy cupcakes. If I lived near a bakery, I would so have to run out and buy cupcakes right now.I know I could bake the cupcakes, but ......One tablespoon of

Well, since all my other fave knit blogs (and non-knit blogs, as well,) have been posting the last couple days, I will be the first to post for 2007. Yay! 2006 went so fast for me, despite evil things like chemistry and starting physics.....but hey, I survived chem and I'm doing better in Physics.On the Knitting front, I'm almost dome with Fairly Easy Fair Isle, out of stich 'n bitch Nation.

Wow, summer is almost over!!! I go back to school a week from today....day after laborday, as usual. I like that. Some people have to start in August, which, I think, stinks.

And we walked in and the second thing I saw (the first being the black and white picutres of hot shirtless guys hung up in the abacrombie window), was the Gap.Do you like Gap?

So on my mostly favorite radio station, they do this thing every weekday morning about 8:15 called The News That Didn't make the News. And they have funny and somtimest stupid stories about things that have happpend.

So I'd been wating to make myself a hat, and not on my Knifty Knitter, either. I wanted to hand knit this had, because I hadn't hand-knit a hat for me, only baby hats.So I decided I wanted to knot this really cool hat that's in Stich 'n Bitch that has sequins in it. Like, before you start knitting you have to put the sequins on the yarn, and keep pushing them down the yarn until you need them.One

Hello, everyone! I hope you are having a good new year. I have done A LOT of knitting, and I have created an AWESOME tote, which I would put a picture of on here, but A) I don't have a (working-with-more than-two-megapixals) digital camera and B) I don't know how to post pics on here.

So I hope all are having Happy Holidays...(Holi = Holy, therefore, HOLY DAYS.....).I had a great christmas....and I got a TON of yarn, some knitting needles and a Knifty Knitter.
