I really did intend to continue blogging multiple times a week about knitting topics for awhile there. I was going to show you all photos of my sweater progress and the lace shawl I finished last week and, well, I got a little distracted. Not by anything important, for the most part. Just, distracted.
First it was finals then waiting for my grades. I did quite well, if I do say so myself. Apparently the move to yet another new school wasn’t such a horrible idea, after all.
Then I got a job offer and panicked that I had nothing to wear to this new job and spent a good three days shopping.
And I ditched the idea of making myself a Cabaret Raglan and started the fuzzy math to alter Shalom to fit me at my gauge.
Oh, there was the finishing of the Andromeda shawl in there, too. Haven’t blocked that yet but that’s another story altogether.
Got a haircut.
Watched all three seasons of Deserving Design on Hulu. I may have a bit of a crush on Vern Yip.
And, last, family came over for dinner Saturday night and I took a few photos that turned out pretty well.
That brings me to today, a day to be filled with more work clothes shopping and meeting Alison for dinner in the city. (Do Washingtonians refer to it as a “The City” like those in the Bay Area refer to San Francisco? I keep calling it that and people usually know what I’m referring to but give me strange looks.)
As a lifelong NoVA townie, who was born in D.C., I never refer to it as “The City,” I always say, “D.C.”
