I'm a Bad Girl
My sister wanted to give us a gift for our anniversary this year. She was thinking she'd either give us a gift certificate to a nice restaurant so we could go out for fancy dinner together, or she'd give us money instead so we could buy what we wanted. I yelled, "Yarn!" Jeremy yelled, "Best Buy!"
Jeremy still hasn't decided what to get, but over the weekend I got 8 hanks of Peace Fleece in a very rich reddish brown from Mary's Yarns. Apparently she and her daughter made the trip to Maine and brought back a bunch of colours for the shop. I've, uh, already started a cardi with it. I couldn't help it. It's going to be sort of like an Everyday Cardigan but with some waist shaping and I'm thinking about set-in sleeves. I'm making it up as I go. I can't find my Everyday Cardigan pattern anyway. I'm almost to the underarm shaping on the back already.
Speaking of Everyday Cardigans, I can't find mine. I lost it sometime over a year ago. I vaguely remember putting it away somewhere, but I have no clue where. I really don't think I left it somewhere, I'm sure it's got to be somewhere at my mom's house from before we moved here. Hopefully it'll turn up sometime.
And...today is Freakgirl's birthday! Happy birthday!

Totally tragic. I wanted to rip it out and reknit it a little bit smaller. And the buttons on that sweater are faboo, too. :(
Jeremy still hasn't picked anything out.
