A few nights ago, I finished Bear #96, Sally Sparrow! She’s 🌈-y, just in time for Pride.
Month: June 2017
Pride!
Not much knitting has been going on here, due to all-day classes and studies. Today I happened to be working on coursework next to Imagiknit, so I stopped in for a few minutes before my family picked me up. I got to see the amazing Pride Blanket knit by male knitters in San Francisco (I’m pretty sure I met some of them a few weeks ago!).
Inside, I was drawn to these gorgeous Freia yarns, and need to come up with some projects to justify buying some.
I’ll have a bear FO to show you tomorrow! 🐻 Good night!
Bears!
It’s been a busy week, but I’ve had some bear news! Orlando has been spotted in Africa!
Liz Ten got a heart sewn on! (She’s far right in the top right photo)
And I finished knitting Rose (as in Rose Tyler).
In spite of being home alone for the week, I’m super tired because of classes, coursework, new early schedule, a bus commute, and starting today, fieldwork! I was charged with teaching a short reading lesson tomorrow morning– I decided to try Fantastic Mr. Fox out on the kids, wish me luck!
Wonder Woman!
Today a friend and I went to see Wonder Woman!
It was great!
New shirt from etsy for the occasion
Bonus: there were some freebies at the comic book store, and we found a machine selling female superhero nail thingies.
I’m considering seeing this in the theater again soon- it was really, really good.
Flax sweater, modeled
The other evening I was able to get the Girl to take a walk to the corner mailbox with me, with the ulterior motive of having her take some photos of my Flax sweater in some nice outdoor lighting. I think she took some great pictures!
This week, as the next several, I’m neck-deep in my teacher credentialing program, so knitting has been a rare and treasured activity.
My husband and kids are in Portland for the week, and although the quiet is nice while I ease into this intensive program, I’m kind of jealous of their outdoor activities!
Until next time!
