No I'm not dead...

Like it said, I'm not dead yet.  I just feel like it.  I've been sick the past week or so and I was doing ok until this morning.  Losing my voice and I wonder if I shouldn't just go to the doctor now.  Throat is really sore and it's cheaper for me to go to the student health than any where else.  Kinda worried about my throat.  And really, I don't want it to get worse.  I'll see how I feel as the day continues.

Anyway, more reviews are coming your way.  As soon as I remember what I read.....  I do remember reading Wool by Hugh Howey.  I bought it from amazon when it was .99 cents and it looked quite interesting.  And it was!  Depressing and interesting.  So that review should be up hopefully this week.  I haven't read much this week so I need to read more.  Of course, that means I need to download the books from my kindle on the computer to my Kindle.  lol

I will more than likely start posting my cards that I've been working on too.  I've decided maybe that would help me finish the rest.  I've just been lazy and haven't done it.  Which is depressing.  I'm really excited about these cards and excited to possibly have my fiance help me with all the little details.  She's good at that.

And Etsy shop should open soon for some of my knitted stuff.  I've sold one set of gloves, had a commission for another set and have been knitting scarves from the fun fur yarn.  I can't think of anything else to do with it so it's just scarves for right now.  The shop will probably also have my fiance's works as well when she's able to get to them and possibly prints of mine.  The tea cups are adorable and I kinda want to work on more of them.

I think that's all for now.  I can't think of anything else to write before work.  Remember to keep an eye out for the review on Wool.

Gloves!

I have been working on a set of gloves I have dubbed the Blush fingerless glove series.  Go knitting!  lol Anyway.... I've only just begun to finish them.  I'm on my last set of the gloves and I'm adding a bit more than normal of the other gloves.  I gave them slots for fingers instead of just the plain opening at the top and I'm hoping I can get the bottom to be a bit more snug.  But I don't know if the bottom will work out.  It's hard to get your hand into them with the bottom so I'll have to play around a bit more.

I'm excited to have them almost finished.  I wanted to start on another set of gloves but I wouldn't let myself do that until I'd finished the ones I started.  At least I'm using my stash up.  I'll try to have a picture of the whole blush set soon.  I don't have an awesome camera like my fiance does.  Soooo, no pictures yet.

And for any of you wondering out there.  I do plan on selling these.  I'm building a small foundation of stuff to sell on Etsy soon.  I have plarn (yarn made from plastic bags, yeah, crazy I know!), it's all brown but I plan on making white soon.  And these gloves.  I need more items and hope to work on it soon but at least everyone knows now that I have more than drawing under my thumb!  I've got knitting!
