Photoshoot Wed 03.26.08 9:29am PDT #22207 |
![]() ![]() Haven't taken any WIP shots of my projects, lately. Which sucks, cuz seeing it progress is where I get most of my satisfaction! So did a photoshoot this morning, including my stash to make my Ravelry page more purdy~ Here's the Flickr page, and the pictures here are the behind the scenes mess! -- Teehee |

Ashland, WI Mon 03.17.08 11:57pm PDT #22158 |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On Friday night my mom and I left from LAX to Seattle to Minneapolis to Duluth, where I was picked up by my Aunt and her friend and driven into Ashland. Quite the trip. We stayed the weekend, a house right off the shore of lake superior. It really was nice to see weather different from California's perpetual sunny skies. But this trip was more business than for pleasure. Once Monday rolled around we went into the reservation/casino part of town and filled out my adoption papers for the Bad River Tribe. We hear back in November, and if I get in this could do wonders for my financial aid! But I'm back home in good ol'e LA, and appreciate it so much more<3 -- Teehee |
Knitting Update, and Jeans! Mon 03.10.08 10:50am PDT #22132 |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Finally, here are all of my projects from the last two months. I got a lot done. For better pictures, I'm on Flickr , (and on Ravelry as DeepHoney) The companion cube was really fun. And the Anteater was Eirik's valentine's day gift :D Now onto jeans....Eirik and I are venturing into a denim experiment. We've purchased brand new jeans on Saturday and are going to tough out 6months of no washing, hopefully they'll lok as awesome as we hope! -- Teehee |
LA Marathon Mon 03.03.08 6:20am PST #22114 |
![]() ![]() ![]() I haven't had much to talk about lately, work and school combined make it pretty hard to get out and do much, except knitting but that's another post in its own. But I recently joined the next step up from Key Club: Circle K! Katie and I felt meeting people on Campus is really hard for us, and that joining this club would help. I'm having lots of fun and just yesterday 5 of us woke up around 3, to meet at 4, to get to the LA Marathon at 5:30 am, and hand out the medals to every bicyclist who did the bike tour (I think I heared 15k people). We were all miserable to begin with but once we were there and allowed some coffee and food everyone enjoyed themselves, even though we found out we were supposed to work a different event. -- Teehee |
Semester 2 Tue 01.29.08 12:41am PST #22026 |
![]() Interesting points of the day: -Lost my schedule but luckily had laptop with a copy I had saved -Filled out my paperwork for my new and glorious E-text editor job with disabled students, on campus, I start tomorrow! -Was immedietly told to leave a class because the prof was not adding -anyone- (half the room left) -Outside failed attempt to join MATH109, another professor swooped in and took 7 of us to form the new and imrpoved Math109 downstairs! -While walking towards my car texting Eirik I ran into TALLCHRIS! He was in my JAPN102 class at the community college during highschool with Eirik and me, and is still a person we speak about regularly to eachother. I made him text a hello to Eirik, it totally made our day! :( Tomorrow I attempt to add another class: PSY110. I hope it turns out better than math109 >: ( -- Teehee |
This Cake is Not a Lie Wed 01.16.08 3:39pm PST #22006 |
![]() ![]() What is under all these heavy objects? Why, companion cube faces! I bound off the sixth and final face last night and now they're blocking to to stop the curling edges and be as square as possible before sewing them together. I'm really excited to finish this up tomorrow but I have yet to decide if I will be stuffing it or sewing it around a block of foam (where do I get this?!) as the pattern shows. -- Teehee |
oh my... Fri 01.11.08 4:53pm PST #21999 |
![]() But what is really cool is that those three hanks of yarn on the upper left are destined to become the Knitted Portal Companion Cube! I will try to keep it for myself, but my brother may want to steal it from me once it's finished. -- Teehee |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Eirik has cold hands. Cold hands like death. Which is what I call them, death hands. To solve this problem he recently began wearing his gloves, but realized he couldn't use his fingers in conjunction with a keyboard, so he chopped off all the fingers of the gloves!In an attempt to ditch the bum gloves, I began his own set of Dashing without the cables, because he doesn't like cables. I finished one in about a day, and am only holding off on the second one until he can try this one on so I don't waste another 81 rounds of [Knit 4 Purl 1]x8, which can be quite a bore~ My first project on DPNs, which is why this glove looks just a tad bit wonky around the joint, I have high hopes for its mate. -- Teehee |
