I'm still working on the gloves for dneph...for some reason, I have not had the time I'd like to work on them. I have so many other things I want to do, but these are my current albatross.
I wanted to make a little sweater for my niece, but that too is not happening :)
I have my present list, and I need to get started on it. I think I need a day of organizing projects, with yarn and needles, and then just busting through them.
I saw the new posters for The Hobbit today, and several of the dwarves have knitted fingerless gloves! Even Gandalf looks to have a stockinette pair. The others seem to be in seed stitch, and one looks like it's actually crocheted, or possibly sideways garter stitch. If I could get my yarn together, I think I could recreate them. One pair looks like my pair of "this and that" mitts, so I should probably write that up asap.
That's pretty much my life right now. I work, come home, wash dishes, go to sleep, go back to work. I'm really only getting knitting done on the bus, which is just an hour a day. Ack!
Lady Grey is doing well. She's 13 months old now, and getting so big! She's also growing her winter coat, so I have to be vigilant about matts. She has two that I haven't been able to cut out because they're right under her front legs and I just can't get to them. I still take her out for her walks, and she's progressed to walking in the front yard now too. She loves chasing rabbits and squirrels (though I don't let her catch them), but she also just likes to sit outside, with her tail wrapped around her legs, and look at everything. She's such a wonderful kitty.
