Things! Whee!

Now that No Sheep for You! [seriously, knock wood, they're keeping the title...which is just the latest reason I love Interweave as much as it is possible for a writer to love a publisher] is not the only thing I'm allowed to think about, lots of other things are floating around my head. Let me list them here, shall i?

Stuff to knit:
- must design lace seasilk yum for BGK2
- crapabble blossom linen bubbly curtain for either my office or the side door of the house
- finish lacewings shawl [possibly tonight at LK, I'm THAT close]
- finish hemp towel, which may require the purchase of another ball of hemp. is a $26 hand towel excessive? it will certainly be an only child.
- start to knit my Suss sweater from Suss Twisted [probably for use in BGK2 -- you'll have to wait and see how]

Fun stuff to think about:
- tonight at LK
- accommodations for Rhinebeck
- being at Rhinebeck
- buying spindles at Rhinebeck
- my 3-day crazy The Point extravaganza, which culminates in the NYC Knit Out. [deets to come]
- did I mention Rhinebeck?

Things I want to do in the next month:
- sell/swap a spindle or two [really nice ones. keep your eyes peeled]
- re-learn how to spin on my wheel
- really learn how to ply so i don't forget again
- re-involve walking in my life, now that i'm not tied to a computer [even if only mentally]

I also have an issue of Knitty to get out. But now, it's time to get ready for mayhem in Kensington market. If you haven't been, and you're anywhere near, you must come. I bet it's really nice and cozy in winter, but nothing will beat these cool nights in summer, on LK's front patio with knitting and laughter and maybe a beverage or two.
