Jumper Cables

In an effort to improve my writing skills I've decided to revive this blog. It now has a swanky bright and distracting background, we'll see how long that lasts.

So much has happened since the last post here. I am now working on a degree of the art persuasion. I am working a ton of jobs that I love. I am also knitting for money on occasion.

Currently I am knitting an organic cotton hat, my own pattern, it has a bill to it to keep out the sun. I am also working on a cap sleeve cardigan it is based on the Jewel pattern by Amy King. I love all of Amy's patterns, and her yarn and fiber too. I'm knitting it in the Malabrigo yarn I received for Valentine's Day a couple years ago.

My current school work includes writing a research paper, writing a book on Franco-American artists and making sure I study for Archaeology and Math. I've done some writing already on those so I'm taking a break to write here and knit a bit.

Up this afternoon is my newest and, let's face it, my dream job. I work at a local fiber artists studio, of which the downstairs has just been converted to a yarn and fiber store. Pretty soon I'll be teaching knitting classes. Like I said, Heaven.

That's it for today, but I'm not planning on being a stranger.
