UM UM UM…!

Posted by: Kelsey on: November 11, 2009

OMG. !
Exams are this week (my school does tri-mesters, which is why exams are so early) and I’ve been studying my butt off.  And today, I was feeling slightly ADD, and decided to take a picture of my knitting inside my Psychology book, to post up here in representation of how I’d MUCH rather be [...]

I’mmmmmm BACK!

Posted by: Kelsey on: November 8, 2009

Internet is offical back and here to stay!  Guess what my problem was?
The fun little internet enabler button on my laptop, placed conviently right where it’s most likely to get shut off, was magically turned off FOR MONTHS! Meaning, the rest of the house had internet, but I did not.  And I realized that, finally, [...]

Long time, no see me.

Posted by: Kelsey on: October 6, 2009

Internt is still pooped out at my house. Dad and tech-savvy friend Kelly (a dude, believe it or not) can’t figure out why my laptop refuses to connect to the internet, and why the main computer (the new one that has messed our whole house’s connection up) only has it sometimes. So I’ve [...]

two weeks later

Posted by: Kelsey on: August 29, 2009

Still no internet at the house. or time to post, as school has offically started, meaning band, student government, Seussical the Musical auditons are next week.. and yeah. Busy, busy, busy.
No knitting has been done. Yeah, bad blogger. Poop on my face.

Stalking the Internet

Posted by: Kelsey on: August 15, 2009

And now I’m at a friend’s house, desperately trying to stay in touch with the knitting world by hiding in the corner of her living room, ignoring The Soup on TV, while most of them (Kayla, my friend  I taught to knit, is sitting next to me stalking my knitting-cyberness right now, actually, lol) are [...]

The shaking should set in any day now.

Posted by: Kelsey on: August 9, 2009

I haven’t deserted my blog!  I promise, I’m still here and remembering it and planning out posts, but there’s one tiny little complication: The internet has died at my house again.
So, here I am, using Boyfriend’s computer (while he sits in the other room still watching Emperor’s New Groove) to try to become back in [...]

Food for Thought

Posted by: Kelsey on: July 28, 2009

I can’t really show you what I’ve been working on, as it’s not far along enough yet to see what it really is.  I have been working on something though, trust me.  I’ll give you a hint: waves.
Oooooooh, intrigue, huh?
Besides that, thanks to some encouragement by Sarah, I made some progress on the Purple scarf.  [...]

Traveling and Such

Posted by: Kelsey on: July 26, 2009

Finished!
Traveling Vine iCozy is finished and beautiful :) I’m very proud of it, accept for one tiny part:
 

                                 ^ I don’t know if you can see it (I can, but I know what I’m looking for).  There is the little loop sticking out where I somehow split the stitch, and didn’t notice.  It pretty much [...]

Blocking

Posted by: Kelsey on: July 25, 2009

I just finished knitting the Traveling Vines iCozy a few minutes ago.  Washed it with shampoo (read that on a Knitty Gritty article– “treat your knitting like your hair; you wouldn’t wash it with dish soap, would you? try some shampoo!”) and pinned it to my futon mattress to block it.  It’s pinned to the [...]

I don’t care

Posted by: Kelsey on: July 25, 2009

I don’t care that it’s a quarter to 3am.
I don’t care that I need to get up at a decent hour tomorrow.
I don’t care that it’s pointless posting a 5 sentence blog update.
I just designed two new bags.
I will be posting two original patterns before this summer is over, and I just thought I’d share [...]
