Sort of homework

Ok, a wish list. Hmmm, that's a bit of a toughie. I'm pretty well stocked, but lets see what I can come up with.

I've never used the new needles that are made of plastic from casein, and I'd like to try them. I'm pretty sure they don't come in US 1's, which is what I knit socks on, but since I signed up for a bag kit this time around, I'd be happy with whatever size is needed for a bag.

I'm a total stitch marker and row counter nut. I need a LOT of help keeping track of where I am in a pattern, and find I like using stitch markers to mark the beginning of pattern repeats.

I definitely could use some sort of small bags to hold stitch markers, tapestry needles etc inside of my project bags. Something to keep me organized, and to keep the smaller tools from getting lost in the shuffle.

Chibi bent tip darning needles. Love them!


Hmm, did better than I thought. I might even come up with more during term. Allergies: no food or fiber allergies, just bee stings.

Antsy

Is this a typical Ravenclaw or what? I can't wait for term to start, and I even can't wait for homework! I'm just so giddy with excitement!

First day of the new term

Ok, how exciting is this. I'm starting my second term at Hogwarts, and I get to stay in Ravenclaw with my old housemates. I'm really excited to see what this term holds in store for us! More later, I've got to start getting my blog ready.
