adam knits!

Thanks to Lime and Violet for their hilarious mention of me on the recent show. I almost spewed coffee all over the place when I heard the show!

And the Snow Angels yarn is up…adamknits.etsy.com…Get yours today!

Phew. Glad that’s done. I spent 10 straight hours at UNM yesterday “finishing up” my take home test. Yeah, it took 10 hours just to put on the finishing touches and wrap up the proofs nicely. It was horrendous. But it’s over now, and my birthday is coming up, so I can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel now!

I was working on the test until around 9:30 PM, so sadly I didn’t make it to SnB at Flying Star. I was sad, since I really wanted to knit instead of work on a test involving complex Markov Chains, but I had my own knitting group once I got home.

Yup, that’s right, I have a personalized beer mug. Super Classy.

That’s Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake from Flying Star in case you’re enticed. I’m glad that they still have Pumpkin stuff after Thanksgiving, because Pumpkin is pretty much my favorite dessert flavor EVER. Mmmmmmm.

In knitting news, I’m still working away on the Irish Hiking Scarf. It’s getting close to the end, but I’m reminded of why I don’t knit scarves too often, cause they take a long time. Technically, it’s probably just a little more work than a pair of socks, but socks have a bit more variety because of all the different parts. I shouldn’t complain though, this scarf has helped me pass many boring hours in classes these past few weeks ;)

There was also a nice little surprise outside when I woke up this morning. Snow! (Although, in true Albuquerque fashion, only about 0.00005 inches of it.) If you look closely in the pictures, you can see the snowflakes falling…just barely though. The dogs quite love to play in the snow…for about 5 minutes, then they start giving puppy eye looks and shivering. Such babies, and wonderful actors to boot. Needless to say, I always succumb to their charms…which is why my sheets always seem to be dirty.

Coming up tomorrow, I’ll announce my birthday contest, open the guessing and start begging for yarn presents. Fun times.
