This sweatshirt has been the object of my desire for some time now. Whenever I feel like I need some retail therapy I put it in my etsy cart, yet for some reason I just haven't sealed the deal. I'm not sure why (seriously, I've been coveting it for months), however looking at it again today, I'm thinking maybe it's because it looks like the scissors are about to lop off a boob. Is it just me? It's in my cart now - it could go either way...


Miraculously, I have a finished project. The color is terribly off- think magenta, brown, olives and reds.

Pattern: Railroad Rib socks by Evelyn Clark - distributed by Fibertrends
Yarn: Hazel Knits Cami Chic
Needles: US#1 (2.25mm) Crystal Palace Bamboo DPNs

I kind of feel like a slacker since all of my sock FO's of late are just one sock. But hey, they are for trunk shows - no need to knit two. This is one I wish I could keep for me - fits perfectly!

Next to go on the needles: Sam's Truffle Mitts... So cute!

There's no way I could easily get away with this behavior before I lived alone:

What's the point of dirtying plates when I know I'm going to eat the whole thing?

(not in just one sitting, of course :) Drinking straight from the milk carton may follow...
