I finished the fetching mitts for Mom. They look pretty neat if I do say so myself... and I do. I'm also mostly finished with the eye pillow, I just need to sew the seams closed and that's that. I got in y sock books and sock yarn from knit picks, and I am excitedly now ignoring my homework to knit socks instead. Whoo-hoo. I just received a call from my usual summer employer inviting me back, so I get to play with everybody on yarn hill for lunch break this summer. I look forward to pestering my draper to help me knit things that are more intricate and infinitely more cool than I have so far. Now, I just need to find a home and a job for after July. I'm going to go ponder my thesis further (aka stare at the computer while knitting, rather than being productive.) Happy Monday to all, off to anoth great week.

Nothing new to post. Not really. Only one word. Flu. Yep. No knitting, no nothing, just me, little ball of death in the corner of the sofa. At least I can sit up to type now. Hopefully more progress on the mitts soon. One is completed except for the thumb bit, but I am waiting to work on them until I no longer carry the plague. Blech.
