Well, I knit the pink yarn from my frogged sweater into another sweater, which didn’t fit me (my curse as a knitter, I suppose), but I gave it to my dearest friend, instead of frogging again…this led me to pulling all of the purple yarn (from the same sweater) out of the balls and onto skeins (I made…yes, created…a niddy noddy in order to do this) and then soaked and straightened it (because it’s true! The kinks in the yarn cause it to knit up strangely after frogging), and have begun to knit it into two fingerless gloves of my own patterning (I’ve finished the first and am…perhaps 1/4 of the way through the second, and they’re actually quite cool-looking). I also took the black yarn I spun, and some red wool from a hat I knit my grannie, along with some brown mohair I had from a doll-making project, and I knit them into a very art-deco scarf for my grannie (which I gave to her today, and she loved it!). I still have some left, but I’m turning it over to the gods of needle-felting, seeing as it’s not enough to actually make anything knitted out of. I still have a ways to go…and I have few ideas of what to do with the rest of this yarn, but it will get done, I swear to God.

I’ve been going to a yoga class at least two times a week for about a month now, and I really love it. I recommend it to everyone. Go to at least one class…don’t just stick with videos, it’s not the same! Adjustments are awesome.
I never get stuff done if I’m in my dorm room, I’m always on the internet and wasting time. It’s bad. I’m going to use the library again, it was a good place for me last semester.
