I am so tired, but something is keeping me up.
School kicked my ass this past year, so I didn't do anything remotely crafty.
Either the beginning of this summer or during winter break (heck, my memory's bad), though, I was inspired to make a
panta. Just need to sew the ends together and I'll put pics up of it.
Haven't restarted my kittyville hat yet.
I must be the laziest person alive! I have so many ideas and projects to do, but I never do them. Just the easy ones.
Oh, I bought this neat journal that had ugly covers on it and I decoupaged stuff I find cool/interesting onto it. Haven't fully filled in all the gaps, but it's almost complete.
Been selling my Japanese fashion mags on eBay. 10 out of 19 selling ain't bad for the first time seller (not including the time I sold those Depeche Mode concert tickets; magazines are different).
I'm in the process of making simple arm warmers, just out of sheer boredom and laziness to do anything else of real value.
Alright, time to try to sleep now.

back to my Wis 21 paper.
A quickie, lawl.
I FOUND MY STITCH MARKERS!!!!
Oh, and I'm at school. I did bring my knitting, though.
Damn, I AM the MAN.
Last night, while surfing around and looking around the house for my stitch markers, I learned something new:
Stitch markers go on
THE NEEDLE,
NOT on the actual stitch.
FTW, I am a genius.
Now to find my stitch markers...
P.S., Re-starting my Kittyville hat, doing more knitting on some scarves, and I decided not to wrap the green yarn around the wooden beads I painted green. I'll just string the beads on a ribbon or something with the pattern of blue beads with yarn wrapped around it and green beads alternate.
P.P.S., I am going to use my sewing machine before school starts. Dammit, I will!
P.P.P.S., I have been fooling around with plastic pearls, wire, and jump rings. So expect some necklaces or bracelets out of that.
Call me craptastic.
Just like that one time I put my head down in Mr. Torp's class for one sec and he thought I was sleeping, "I'M AWAKE!"
Yes, I know I haven't posted in forever, but I have been doing some stuff! Honest!
-Necklace not finished because needle stuck in bead with yarn on it -_-"
-blue & brown scarf finished.
-I'm too lazy to check if I've already posted this, but I finished my blue and brown scarf in February.
-Started green and brown one for mommy.
-Haven't finished kittyville hat yet.
-Started and finished a pair of cheats fingerless gloves in 2 DAYS. Count 'em 2 DAYS! All I have to do now is finish stitching the sides together on each glove.
-Started cutting my old Stanford shirt. Must sew straps on and resize.
-Started and finished a ring for 3D art.
SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER! One more week and then we're done. Grad is in 2 weeks! Crazeh.
The beginning of my summer will be busy up until the second week of July. I'm struggling to find something to do, if any commitment can be made willingly.
Here's a pic of what I had done on Thursday:
This is actually the third glove being made. Yes, third. First one was alright until I finished it. Should've used k1 p1 when finishing, but I used the knit stitch all the way through and pulled too tight so that it won't fit me. Now, it's my "pattern glove." Knitting when fast. Knit in as many classes as possible. I knitted like a madwoman. It was great :D
Tired. Potential trip to SF in morning. More later, esp. after I finish the gloves completely.
Huzzah! Good news:
V-Day is in 2...er...1 day! I finished ONE craft--making record bowls (with a lot of help and support from my mom, cuz I'm a weenie around hot ovens) for V-day, and MY KNITTING CLUB PASSED!
Meetings will start the Monday after break in Ms. W's room.
Also, I decided to start a scarf with the leftover blue merino yarn I used on my necklace, which I've not finished yet. I plan on going to Michael's, this week, to get some bright green yarn and/or brown or raspberry-colored yarn for the necklace and for my scarf.
Pictures:
The 4 bowls we made: 2 from a set of classical records, and 2 are Barbara Streisand records, lol.
For a certain someone. Filled with Japanese candies (Fizzy soda candies, caramel candies, grapefruit-flavored pastilles, and butterscotch candies).
P.S., The tutorial I used is
here.
I know I can. I know I can. I know I can...
From the looks of things, it seems like a lost cause.
Second Semester Senior Year isn't supposed to be so busy!
But I'm working hard and trying my best to get things done. I know I'll get something up here this month!
I finished the seed stitching on my Kittyville hat, and my proposed Knitting Club, at school, passed the preliminary round of being accepted as a school-sponsored club. I have to speak to everyone on school site council, this Thursday, though. It's not such a big deal, but I get nervous about most public speaking opportunities...
