Knitting, the stress reliever...

Today is very hectic.  Steve is driving to Oregon and his tire blew out on the freeway.  That sucks.  I am at home knitting and contemplating watching Fight Club.  Hmm.  This.

Some old things...

Here. This is me posting some old photos of things that I have on hand right now. I hope to begin posting here more often again.

100 Project Challenge! (Telegram)...

I read about this on craftster a couple of years ago, at the end of every year, I think, "Wow, I'm sure I did over 100 projects this year, I should keep track..." So I will now post all the projects I've finished in the first 23 days of the year. Look back for updated posts!!!

The deer heads...


My slouchy hat, I haven't stopped wearing it since I took it off the needles... Love!


I fixed up this little table that had been badly damaged by the weather...

Oh, the angst!!!


Today's song is brought to you by The Brian Jonestown Massacre. (Paid for by the committee to keep music evil).

Doin' the Cockroach

Emily's very very very long cowl...


Please excuse me in the photos, i'm a sick girl today.

Subbacultcha

Projects! Projects! Huzzah!
Here's some little sillies...


This next guy is heavily influenced by some of my favorite crafters. She is made of fabric scraps and old pants. She's about 2 1/2 feet tall including her legs. I don't have a photo of her after she was finished yet, but she is done, and that will be posted soon.



Her name is Myrtle. Shs is an octocatowl. She loves staying up late at night, and wearing pretty dresses. Her favorite band is Shonen Knife...

Bear hat!
I made this for work, but I don't think I want to give it up. The pattern's from Stitch N' Bitch Nation.


We recently had an adventure at The Biblical Gardens. It was quite magical...



We've also been going to Meri St. Mary's radio show, The Underground Sound on KVMR every other Wednesday from Midnight to 4 AM, it can be streamed live at KVMR.com. If you get a chance, try to listen to it, she plays some really good psych and punk rock...


Oh, and one more thing... We'll be in San francisco from Jult 15-19. Get your party hats on...

Caleb has an art show starting on the 16th. That night we will be attending a show at The Eagle on Howard. Meth Teeth and The Oh Sees will be playing, and we are all very excited.

And what's going on in S.F. on July 16th and 17th? Oh, The mother effin Renegade Craft Fair. I could not be more excited.

Subterranean Homesick Blues

Okay, moving onto some other recent craftings...
A hat! A bright pink hat made out of the delicious "Burly Spun" yarn that I love so.


Some felted pin cushions...

A fabulous "Artfelt" project started by myself and the lovely Natalie...

I need to get a picture of the finished product, it turned out amazing!


I made these little cuties for my art room, oh and here's what it looks like, our creative space...


We'll end here today with a lovely picture of my little princess Mildred and myself...

Happiness is a warm gun...

Well, my life for the past two weeks has been completely consumed by The Beatles...
John, specifically. This post will be an obscenely long list of my favorite photos of John Lennon.

Superficial Love

So, it's been a while since my last post... I've been knitting a lot, and now that Christmas is over, I don't have to worry about gifts as much, except for your blanket, Rachel!!! Which is more than half done, geez, it's taking a while. After doing a custom hat recently, I have once again fallen in love with knitting hats.



As you can tell, I have perhaps been watching too much Gurren Lagann lately(Which is a totally amazing anime, and I recommend you watch)...

The blue hat is called "The Spiral Cap," and is from a Vogue Knitting book...


They are so quick to do, and they're not easy to mess up, which is nice... Lets see, I will be attending TNNA (The National Needle Arts Association) for work in San Diego this weekend. I have to catch my plane super early on Friday morning. But then I will be in S.D. for 4 days all by my lonesome... Fun stuff. I will remember to take my camera with me for sure!





Today's song is brought to you by TSOL, enjoy!
