Ima Slacker and a Degifting

Yes, that is my new name. I have yet to post a pick of my hat FO. This is my first Knit FO of 2009! I am a slacker for sure. I'm already making plans for my next project. Originally I was planning on starting Bijou, but now I might cast on for Stefanie Japel's Textured Circle Shrug first. It's a fairly quick knit and will be a nice throw-on for work (I'm always cold - even in San Diego).



I'm still working on M5662. I just have to gather the bottom bodice and sew it up. I have no idea why I've been so behind on my sewing....hopefully this'll get me back on track.



Since I don't have my hat pic - I'm showing another view of my Butterick 5246 dress. I say "my", because I'm stealing this one away from my Mother. I'm going to make her a longer version of it - 'cause Kwacha needs one, too - I just can't part with it. (She's on a cruise, so she won't read this before her new one is completed.) lol. Anywho - here's a shot of me at the Tao restaurant Valentine's weekend. Every woman there was rocking black and I felt like the color made me stand out - in a good way.

Pics of my hat this weekend.....promise!
