Tattoo you.

I'm starting to worry about myself. Lately I've been seeing more and more tattoos that cause the "Ooh, I like that. A LOT." thought to skitter across my brain. This is another one that looks funky enough to trip my knitpistol trigger. Brought to my attention by long time friend and new knitpistol fruittart, I totally dig it--especially the way the yarn wraps around her wrist to twist itself around the other needle. Didja catch that part?

Very cool.

Oh, My Giddy Aunt!

So today I sat down to do some stash updating and attending to my Ravelry account, and look at what my inbox had in it:



Holy smokes!!! They like my mobius so much that they want to put it on the Life Is Uneven Cowl Ravelry page??!!!? That's so ... INCREDIBLE! Not to mention unreal. And right, like I'm not gonna approve this request? You have GOT to be freaking KIDDING ME. Approve! Approve! Approve!

This is what I get for channeling Audrey. :) w00t!

Once more into the yarnporn.

I have something to confess: I have been studiously ignoring my Ravelry account. Ever since Ravelympics, I have been so burned out on maintenance that I've been afraid to go back in. There's still seven messages in my queue, which are full of Ravelympic badges that I won for all the work I did, but that three week push just did me in. I know it sounds pathetic. But it's taken over a month to gather the strength to go back in and start cleaning up, putting things into place, organizing new stash items (and even moving some to the "Will sell or trade" category, believe it or not), and just generally wading back into the waters of yarnporn. Yarn that has been sitting in limbo is now getting pulled out and pictures taken, and the time has come to upload and update the stash.
