Knitting Like Crazy

So I supposed that I should be writing qualifying paper number two, however, I find it much more interesting to make my hands hurting by knitting instead of typing.

I finished a pair of fingerless gloves for Steve yesterday - here's a link to the pattern if you're interested - when I finish the lettering, I'll post a picture of his.

The next project is actually doing something that I probably shouldn't - "borrowing" a pattern from a knitter who is making a bigillion dollars off these baby pants she makes.

I think I can do - Steve had to help me figure out how to do the mouth - but now I think i'm good. The worst part was actually finding proper sock monkey colors. Now i wonder if i can make these for myself.... hmmmm....

More knitting things to come - I will post a pic of the new hat i made - actually for myself - when i can get Steve to take a picture of me wearing it.

Ta ta for now. Now i have to write. For real.
