New Adventure/Update

Time to bring y'all up-to-date on what happening... The henley is really close to being finished -- am racing my way down the second sleeve and should be done in just a couple of days. I also finished my first "real" crochet project: an improvised cap following Nancy of Woven Art's instructions. Am looking for my next crochet project now.

There has been a change of plans regarding the next knitting project(s). I was going to do a top-down aran, but the intended recipient let me know that he wants socks instead. So I'm going to do a pair of garter-rib socks in Brown Sheep Wildfoote, colorway Jungle. I also am planning on a pair of Spiraling Coriolis in Wildfoote Symphony for another friend.

Probably the biggest non-knitting news is that I have decided to supplement my teaching income by becoming an Avon lady, so to speak! I signed up as a representative a few days ago and have been perusing my start-up kit. I will have a web shop up shortly where you may browse and buy, or I would be very happy to meet you in person to show you the latest products from Avon. The current brochure is good until the end of this month and has hundreds of great deals. Please leave a comment if interested. Thank you!
