I've been busy....kind of


It's been a few days! Things have been relatively busy (and cluttered) up in here but I've been able to clean up a bit and settle in to some good old fashioned computering (or "blogging" if you will). I've been sorting things out with my student loans and American visa come September and it seems as if everything is in order. Now it's just a matter of crossing the border and settling down on the other side of said border.


In other extremely exciting news, I've finished all the granny squares (well granny hexagons) for the blanket I'm making. I'm just in the process of threading in all the yarn ends and then I'll have to crochet everything together with the grey yarn I've chosen. This isn't a great picture but I took it late at night on my living room floor just as a reference for when it's time to put everything all together.



Found this book at a thrift shop a few days ago for only $4. After spending time with a friend working on her master's in urban planning who referred to this book as her bible I figured it was worth the money to check it out. Due to the 4 other books I have on the go right now I only got through the first few pages of the introduction while walking home but I'm looking forward to devoting all of my book-reading attention to this in the near future.

I've also set up my etsy shop here. You might notice that it's completely empty but I intend to post a few things this week. I'm having a hard time with the quality of my images owing to my crappy digital camera. Yes, I went to school for photography. But everything should be up and running by the end of the week, fingers crossed.
