Valentines!

So, I know now that I'm not getting any Peace Fleece for V-Day, but I'm getting a schlager! Hooray swords for romantic occasions! Also, anyone reading might want to stop by Bark and Knit to enter a contest (ending on the 14th) by telling how they met their significant other. (And she sends honest to goodness responses.) Enjoy!

P.S. The second sock is almost done, but I have to stop and make myself read Native Son for English class.

P.P.S. Yay swords!

Work in Progress

If my camera were more cooperative, I'd post a picture of the almost finished sock for my sister, based on Earl Grey by the Yarn Harlot. It's in a green handdyed yarn, so I'm calling it Green Tea, because I think it's funny. Then I intend to make some frankensocks for my brother, and then I might attempt Eleanora of Toledo's stockings, for the heck of it. I also entered a contest for the first time at My House of Wool, and I'm blindly hopeful, even though there are so many applicants. Right now the Cat and I are trying to find a place to live for next year, and it's not going too well, mostly because of arguments with the parents. Just keep hoping and praying.
