Done!

So, I'm officially DONE with my Central Park Hoodie! YAY! It's awesome. Although, it has probably given me a false sense of how fast I can get a sweater done, since I did it in only 7 weeks! (Mom says this is the fastest she's ever knit a sweater. I'll take her word for it!) I really feel like I can do anything now!

Here's a picture: (And no, Tobi, you can't have it! :-) )



I don't know what's been with me these past few months, but I've REALLY gotten into knitting - big time! Before, it was fun to do small projects here and there, but I was never obsessed...not like I am now! Now, I have about 80 projects that I can't wait to do (My next will be the February Lady sweater as seen here.). Damn you Ravelry! Plus, mom and Sarah have totally gotten me hooked on sock knitting. I only have one pair done, and I've already got yarn to make FIVE more pairs! Well, I should say I have one and a half pairs of socks done, cause I just finished this one a few nights ago:



Isn't it so pretty? Crystal Palace Yarns just came out with this yarn about a month ago. I have it in 4 different colors! Enough to make three pairs of socks and a pair of fingerless gloves! Phew! Also, since I know most of the people who read this blog love Twilight, I discovered this yarn last week:


It's called, "Rainy Day in Forks!" How cool is that? The company also has one that is called "Edward's Locks" that is a brown/bronze color. I'M GONNA HAVE TWILIGHT SOCKS! Hehe...I didn't even know that was the name until I brought it home and did some research! It called to me in the store - Edward wants me to knit cool socks!

Speaking of Twilight, they start shooting for New Moon in a couple of weeks!!! And in about a month, we can all have Edward in our homes, so we can watch him as many times as we want!!! And no one will look at us like we're freaks!!! :-) I'm seriously thinking about getting the Blu-Ray disc too...but it's only being sold at Target and Best Buy, so I'd have to pay full price. Which is ok, I guess, since I got the Special Edition DVD from Amazon for free - thank you credit card rewards! *Sigh* I actually haven't read the books in a while, ok, a month...but still, that is a long time for me! I'm actually thinking about going and grabbing New Moon off the shelf - just for a refresher, you know?

I can't wait until I get my next paycheck...I've been working overtime, and it's been hard, but it will be so worth it when I see that fat paycheck! I don't really have anything in mind to buy...well, I was looking at TV's, but I don't have a specific one picked out yet...ok, I'm looking at Samsung - but I don't have a model picked out yet! I don't know why I'm obsessing about a TV...I have a perfectly good Samsung flat-screen...it's not the best Hi-Def set, but it does its job. I guess I'm just a gadget girl at heart. Plus, then I could put my old TV in my bedroom! (Which would probably be a bad thing...I might never get out of bed!) I dunno...I'm gonna do my research, and take it slow. But I just kinda think it's stupid to have a PS3 and Blu-Ray player if my TV can't really show the Hi-Def features of those systems.

I know, I'm babbling. I'm gonna go knit a sock now...see you!
