Knitty knitty

So I've started a project to knit a lot of hats for one of our kiddo's school groups (ambiguity intentional). I have almost four completed, and need to be done by the first week of December. Shouldn't be a problem, right? Well a bit of monotony does set in, and then there are the quickie things to make for Halloween, and finishing costumes, and getting started on Christmas gifts for the fam, and the "oooh shiny!" moments that come when you see a new yarn or the perfect pattern you didn't even know you were looking for until you saw it.... So no, it won't be a problem, but it may be a huge exercise in self-restraint! (she says as she gets back to the Tardis wristwarmers....)

Good bye Steve Jobs

A technological icon has left this world, and we can never thank him enough for his brilliance. He revolutionized the way we communicate, and as an employee of a major telecom firm, I appreciate all he has done for us. Thanks for changing the world, Steve. Rest in peace.
