I wanted to post pictures of the new sweater and hat that I've just finished, but they're stuck in the camera. Hopefully I can get them up soon. I'm working on many new projects, so expect to see great things!

So I'm sitting here at my computer wondering why I'm so hungry... when suddenly I realize that it's because I haven't eaten anything today! I thought back to the "squiggly-brains-masquerading-as-food" debacle, but realized that was nearly 24 hours ago. So MY brains made an executive decision to go to the kitchen and rustle up some grub.I'd grown rather tired of the perpetual rice and ramen, so

Just a heads-up: I've begun to add handspun yarn to my Etsy shop:Deathray Productions Handspun Yarn!

I finished another pair of handspun socks:They are 3-ply merino, knit on size 4 needles. Very soft and squishy. Here's a closeup:Earlier this week, the King of Pie (my sister's boyfriend) saw me spinning this yarn, and begged me to make him something from it:First he asked for a beanie, but then he found out that I could make hacky sacks, so he wants a beanie with a matching hacky sack. Aww,

"I'm hiding in your yarn!"This is my favorite yarn that I have ever made! 226 yards of fingering-weight BFL, and ridiculously soft, shiny, and beautiful. It's too pretty for me to knit with, so I shall keep it forever.I started a pair of knee socks in Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in "Bittersweet":They have a little cable running down the back, which will show better when they are worn.

So, I had quite a few new projects to take pictures of, but my camera wouldn't take any decent pictures; everything kept coming out blurry. I'm going to try again tomorrow, but for now, here's a picture of some yarn that I am working on:This is 520 yards of DK-weight, single ply yarn. It's colonial wool from Copper Moose in "Northern Nights." I bought a pound, so when it's all done, I should

So, today I turned in the last paper that I will ever write at UC Davis. It was kind of a strange moment…I realized that now little stands in the way of my graduation. There are no longer any obstacles that seem as if they may be insurmountable. I have two finals next week, but short of me sleeping through them entirely, it would be nearly impossible for me to screw up. And after pulling 6

So, I haven't posted because I haven't gotten much knitting done lately. I'm almost done with school now--only finals left! I won't be walking for graduation because silly me forgot to sign up for tickets for my family, but I suppose you can just imagine any generic graduation scene from a movie with my name added to it somewhere. I'm taking a year or two off school, partly because I'm not

I haven't gotten much in the way of knitting or spinning done over the weekend, because the looming threat of multiple research papers has filled my heart with doom, I seem to be coming down with a minor illness of some sort, and I am currently addicted to Final Fantasy II. I'm still on the heel flap of the first blue sock, and I've only spun up about half a skein of (totally awesome) merino. I

It was a dark and dreary day. Sarah skipped lecture in favor of sleeping in and lounging about in her alligator pajamas all day. Were this a perfect world, she would have made great progress on her three research papers. However, though her essay progress was minimal, she did accomplish heights of productivity not seen since last weekend, including cleaning her apartment and beginning to learn

Fishnet gloves, knit from Cascade Fixation on size 6 DPN's. They're alright, but they didn't turn out exactly as I had envisioned them. I think I would need to use a thinner yarn to get the right effect, because the yarn's bulkiness obscures the holes at certain angles.A single Pomatomus sock hanging out with Azurill. I got sick of the pattern and switched to stockinette after the leg, and

So, I should probably start this blog off with a little bit about myself:My name is Sarah, I'm 20 years old, and I grew up in Sacramento, California. I have four sisters (two younger and two older) and two cats (one good and one bad). I like waffles, the color pink, fluffy kittens, and giant blenders.I'm a senior at University of California, Davis. I'll be graduating in about a month with a BA
