Yarn Porn

Last night at 7pm, Wicked looked like this. The problem is that I learned or rather realized that I was knitting it too large.

So, at 10pm last night this is what Wicked looked like. A great improvement? Nope. I had to reprint the pattern and get everything all ready again. So, what do I do today?

I buy this. Oh, Pure Merino (originally $7.00) at $5.60 each plus the 30% off chip= 3.92 each. As Rachel Ray says, yumm-o! Did I mention that you get an additional discount on top of sale and clearance items. So what did I do then?

I bought this. Berroco Ultra Alpaca. Originally $8.00 a hank, it was on sale for $5.60 each + 30% sales chip= $3.92 each.

That's all I got. But, Louet yarn is an additional 20% off plus whatever sale chip you pick, and Debbie Bliss is an additional 15% off, and Noro was an additional 10 or 15% off, and oh yeah Cherry Tree is an additional 20% off.

Do I have ideas for the sweaters? Nope... but I am thinking about it. There are so many possibilities.

Paper Update: I have finished the final draft of the Methods paper. I now have to do my powerpoint on Thursday.

X-Files Update: Netflix messed up so now we had to send the disc back that we already got. We are still on Season 6. Spender jsut got killed.
