And Baby bear said... I love my hat!

So I've been completely frustrated with my gloves so I've moved on and have begun another project seeing as the gloves have until December where as the baby bear stuff has until July/August so... Lol.
The picture below is the beginnings of my baby bear hat. I hope it'll be done quick because it's knitting up fairly quickly

A day of rest... and knitting

First day I've had to not think about the show or work or anything in WEEKS.  Need to clean, but I plan on knitting today too.  Our pipes backed up in the bathroom, and the clog is apparently SO FAR into the pipes that the plumber has to come and fix it.  No amount of baking soda and vinegar will kill this drain.  Good thing we've got two showers because I haven't been able to use my bathroom for weeks.  Downside to this whole thing, the pipes are located in MY closet, because the bathroom is next to my room... I find it a poor design for convenience but smart for aesthetics, but still find it annoying that every time the drain gets backed up I have to clean out my closet and make my room look like no one lives in it.  Not exactly fun.  Counting down the days that my sister takes her dresser and I can move into the larger, doesn't have a set of pipes in the closet, bedroom.  Downside, my dad loves to get up early and start pulling things from the attic, and THAT door is in that bedroom...
When this finally happens I plan on creating a makeshift crafting corner, where my laptop and all my artsy crafty things will be, with my comfy chair, so I can sit and watch a movie on my laptop and knit.  That would be especially nice on a rainy day like today...

SO! in conclusion, (with yesterdays post) I plan to update this more often.  I enjoy writing and I ignored the blog because I wasn't knitting and didn't want to admit to almost failing my 12 in 2012 project before I even got 12 projects done...  I think I'll begin my blanket as well so that that is atleast STARTED so I have until December to finish it.  If I start that soon, I will have 3 projects in the works, and if I am correct, 3 done, equaling 6.

Happy Knitting!

it's been too long...

So it has been forever since I last updated.  It's mainly because I didn't finish those gloves... I am working on a hat for a guy at my job, which I'm slightly proud of and I'll take pictures before I'm finished.  I haven't finished the glove because I've had so much going on!  Out of no where I got super busy and I would try to knit at play practice, but the girl who is supposed to be double cast with me like never came to practice, so I would sit for about 5 minutes, then jump up again... it was a pain.  My show is also this weekend and next week, so that too...
I'm trying to get a second job, and that may cut into my knitting... BUT! it will give me more money to move out, and do some other stuff (maybe I'll travel...) and buy yarn! MAYBE I'll buy yarn in different places I visit and make a blanket or something... it would be fun.

I used to update this before I got to work each morning, but then I had nothing to really write about, so I didn't want to bore the two people who look at my blog.  So here's the update

Sister is having a baby boy, need to search for some little boy patterns... maybe some holiday theme hats and socks... though I am not a big fan of making socks...
Need to order the spinning kit so I can do that this summer, I want to dye the yarn by using the sun to heat it.  Be slightly Eco-friendly.  I started a scarf using the loom I got for Christmas, I'm pleased with how it has turned out so far...  That's my mindless knitting knitting project.  I can just loop and flip and not worry about counting stitches, dropping them, whatever, because it hasn't happened yet! lol

Working on my million dollar idea, that once my friend gets back to me on Copyright fees, I will get it copyrighted and be able to tell all you wonderful people (especially the two who actually read it, thanks guys!) about this.

I WILL make socks before the year is out... I'm not looking forward to it, BUT I WILL!  And I will use a pattern for it too!!  Maybe if I'm lucky during my show next week when I'm not a stepsister, and I'm the giant, I can use the first act of the show to knit my gloves... though that's not likely because I run around helping other people get ready to go on stage so... who knows

I promise pictures soon! and I WILL have those gloves done before May.
