004/365 barter

004/365

my Seattle-friend knit me this rad little neckerchief in exchange for the welly warmers I made for her (tutorial found here)! I was going to add some accents with handspun yarn, but now I don't know. I like the simplicity. and the comfortability! my neck was comfortably warm all day and I totally forgot I was wearing it. actually, I'm still wearing it, along with two long sleeve shirts, a vest, and a blanket. my apartment is damn cold.

thanks Sugaree!

snail mail heyday

ack! today was a great snail mail day!

crochet cotton, two gorgeous batts (soon to be deliciously corespun), stamp carving blocks (gotta get my practice on!) ink pads, and a DPN case!

every year I try to get myself more organized, with little success. luckily, I have talented friends who are more than willing to help!

tonya does amazing work with a sewing machine. she's also making me a few fabric baskets to hide my yarn in. so no more crazy kitties eating my woolies!

step #2 to get more organized and (hopefully) save some money in the long run, was to finally order the Denise interchangeable knitting needle set. well actually, it was an "i.o.u." from my mum. but she's been so busy with work and house occupants, that I wouldn't see it until the NEXT holiday if I didn't get it myself haha. I also want to get this set of double pointed needles if it doesn't get too expensive. my set of DPN's is as mis-matched as the hand-me-down furniture in my apartment (thank you grandma.)

i'll call you on my tin can phone

got these super cute pillow shams in a swap.

thanks Lo{ve} !

knitting needle roll

I love getting packages in the mail. Especially when I forget they are coming! Yesterday I received from my Angel, and I'd like to know who it was so I can thank them! They made this PERFECT knitting needle roll in these great tie dyed fabrics. I want to carry it with me everywhere just cause it's so pretty! I figure I can also use it for my paintbrushes when I need to bring them to class. AND it matches my little Indian silk bag that I use to carry my paints around.

I just need to post this over on Craftster.org and then I'm off to go shopping! I'm steering clear of the mall, the atmosphere there just makes me sick, and furious haha. Salvation Army and Craft Stores, are my kind of shopping! Then dinner with the fam and a night with my love. Don'tcha just love eventful Saturdays? I do.
