Stabbity Fun!

So, yesterday I tested into schlager, the highest skill single weapon in our fencing organization. I'm thrilled, but nervous. I've only fought with it once, and it made my wrist rather sore. I'm also currently leading our club tourney by a few scant points. It's okay if I don't win, but I'd really like to...

Half an FO

So today I finished my first Jabberwock sock. Nothing exciting, but made from valutree's Jabberwocky handpainted sock yarn. It's just a simple ribbed sock, but it fits and I'm proud of it. (Never mind the dorm room decor.)


Not much else is going on. We're entering a three-day weekend, and my roommate's out, so late hours will be a given. Much fun will be had by all. Too bad school is almost over. Among many other things, internet connection will be almost zilch. Not to mention leaving a certain someone 120 miles away...

In addition, on a rather odd note, this is what happens when you combine swords and knitting. I was rather amused...

Foray into Blogging

So today I begin my first blog. I know it's dull. I don't know much yet. I really am not concerned with how many people come here to read, I just noticed how many knitters had their blogs to post pictures of WIPs and FOs. I wanted to be able to share my knitting pictures with the world as well. Never mind the fact that I'm still a relatively newbie knitter. I don't have any pictures yet, but it will happen soon. I foresee much knitting this summer. Hopefully someone will come along and read this, but if not, oh well.
