Ravelry

I've been playing about on Ravelry a bit more, mainly looking through patterns and adding things to my queue and works in progress sections. There are quite a few 'works in progress' just because I can't add pictures to my queue and some of the patterns are ones in my collection, not on Ravelry. So far Ravelry has been a useful tool as an online notebook. It's nice to see the pattern next to yarns I'm thinking about so I can see colors and descriptions and all that stuff. So much better than what I had before which was just a bunch of bookmarks on my computer if I even got that far.

Such a Debonair Little Jumper pt. 1

Yea! New yarn, new project. Once again, I am totally digging my yarn from Knit Picks (courtesty of my grandmother for Christmas). It's a magenta-ish pink, nice and vibrant and slightly heathered though you can't really tell; it's pretty subtle. Holidays and vacation are right around the corner so there's no telling how much will get done before the new year.


I'd like to be able to knit on the plane to Jamaica and according to the TSA website, knitting needles are allowed, technically, but it's up to the officers' individual discretion. I'm just gonna assume that's a no-go.
