Mom's hoodie is going to be a pretty charcoal color:
But, in the meantime, I'm knitting a pair of awesome mittens! My first foray into fair isle knitting...it's going well so far. I got the cuff done last night:
They should look like this when they're all done:
I love the colors, even though they don't really go with anything else that I have - they're still totally cute!
I'm really hoping I get called off today. 1) It's snowing and I just want to stay inside and knit, and 2) I just really don't want to work tonight. So there. (Now that I've said that, I'll be working all night, and we'll be busy...)
And, just because I have to mention it in pretty much every blog post - TWILIGHT PREMIERES IN FOUR DAYS!!! I saw a few days ago that Summit had bought the rights to New Moon and Eclipse - YAY for sequels! I've been online pretty much every day watching interviews of the cast. Rob Pattinson seems like such a nice, humble guy. I just love listening to his voice!
Ok, well, I'm going to go knit some more, then take a shower...and hopfully get a call from work - pray for me!!!

I *love* the mittens. They will be so cute! See you later this week. Only 4 more days!! =)
You go you little knitter you!! Wow, those are turning out awesome. I love that you posted our yarn. I'm so excited to start working with it! 3 days and 50 minutes. Did you have to work? I promise I didn't pray!! (c:
Oh mother...
I want those mittens for Christmas. And hey...what color is MY hoodie! Brats!! I HATE living so far away...I miss you and I want to do this cool stuff too. Love you my sweet...see you SOON!! OH...and be ready to pack kits on Sat. night! haha! :)
Hehe...that would assume that I would even have ONE mitten knit by Christmas.
As it is, I screwed up and put the red stripe in the wrong place and had to rip out all my progress! :-(
But, since I had to work all night Sunday, I was able to get back on track. Now, I'm at the thumb and I'm stuck. The directions are confusing. So momma's gonna have to help me on that!
See you all soon! I can't wait!!!
Allison, How did your interview go today?
The interview went well. I'm going to do a job shadow on Monday to see if I really like the job or not. Hopefully I'll know by next week if I got it or not!
