Holy Toledo I finished it!

 I started this in January when the power went out.


Here it is, spring in the great Northwest, also known as Junuary, and I've finally finished!

The kit has enough yarn to make two of these...anyone want some yarn and instructions cause I'm never doing this again!

We now return to our regularly scheduled life..

Only one more week of school and I can stop getting up at the crack of dawn to make lunches!  Can't wait!

return to civilization

So we here in western Washington, having just lived through another 3 day power outage due to snow, ice, and wind in that order. We hunkered down, connected the little generator to the fridge and a light, and made no bake cookies. Why is it that weather like this makes me want to bake? Either that, or eat bacon on everything. Well, that's not really a change; I'll eat bacon at any given opportunity. At any rate, life as we know it has been restored and now I can get back to knitting this new little purse project. I can hardly wait to see how it turns out, but I think it might take me a while; I've already had to read the instructions twice and that was before I even started.
