I think i'm much too lazy...

to put up photos that is. On Friday I took some time after work to take pictures of some of my yarn to put up on ravelry, but have not yet uploaded them from the camera. Mostly cause I can't find the cord...sigh.

But, I did buy another skein of yarn I needed to finish the irish hiking scarf for Dov. It was going to be waay too short with just one skein. I am curious to start the calorimetry headband, so I might tinker with it tonight for a little bit. But again the laziness will take over and I'm not going to make a swatch first (sadly i have never made a swatch for anything yet...).

anyway, hope the pictures come up soon.

So I gave in...

and started a blog dedicated to my knit-focused endeavors.

I'm currently in Toronto for 2 weddings and have not touched any of the 3 ziplocks of yarn and needles I brought along. My time has been spent sleeping, eating, being with family, and pestering Garrett, although I did go with my mom to Knitomatic over on Bathurst, about a 10 min drive from the house we're staying at. I went to pick up the new issue of Knitscene, and picked up the fall 2005 issue as well since it was discounted. And 2 skeins of Misson Falls 1842 merino superwash wool in an olive greeny color to make a hat for Garrett. Eventually.

I don't know how I feel about starting a blog mostly dedicated to knitting. Oh well, it's worth a shot. Just like that application for the Marine Conservation Fellowship Program in Hawaii was worth a shot. We'll see how it goes. But for now, I'll enjoy my time in Toronto with my family...
