whew!
well my interview today for some freelance work was cancelled. i am kinda thankful because i only have 4 pieces done in my portfolio right now and i need 7. i need to call and reschedule. i think i am going to aim for monday. but tomorrow is the big interview for the 'real' job. i am not really nervous because they are aware i don't have all the skills they need, but they are looking for a good fit and are willing to train, from what i hear. so we will see...
i seem to have a problem lately leaving a store without any yarn. i didn't mean to buy all this. but i did.
my rationalization is that this yarn will be used for some scarfs i plan on making for a bazaar. what bazaar you ask? i don't know. i just think i might do one this fall so i am crafting away.
i also bought another skein of lion brand wool ease in a pale yellow. i bought a bunch when it was on sale for like $2 awhile back and wanted the yellow to break up the other colors i bought. it is either going to be a crazy stripey scarf (although i don't like wearing acrylic next to my skin) or a baby blanket (more likely). i almost walked out with some lion brand polar spun for something else i am planning but resisted (why, i don't know, i actually NEEDED that yarn!).
then the other night i went back to our local fabric store with a great novelty yarn selection (where the stash above came from). i bought 3 skeins of noro kureyon in, i think, color 148. i am making a quick felted bag. i needed a small break from clapotis, although i am nearing the end.
so in the next couple days i hope to have a couple finished projects to share!
ONE MORE THING! for those of you who have been interested in the stole, here is my response to a comment about the colors etc. the pattern comes from scarf style.
