Scarves

So while I was at Sunshine's I made some massive progress on yarn projects. I made the scarf for A-dolly that matches the winter coat my mom made for this year. I am over half-way done crocheting the scarf for the Knit Your Bit campaign sponsored by the National World War II Museum in New Orleans. The address for the project is here: http://www.nationalww2museum.org/education/knitting.html

My next project is making a doink hat for K, the father of A-dolly. He named and designed the hat, I am just the person manufacturing it. When the doink hat is finished I will most certainly post it on my Flickr page. As soon as I finish the vet's scarf, i am casting on for the Red Scarf Project. This project is sooo awesome and it is near and dear to my heart because I am back in college again and this project sends encouragement and care packages to orphans/foster kids who have aged out of the system and are now going to college. Ironically, while I was at Sunshine's my mom bought me the perfect red yarn for the project, not even knowing I was planning on it. She just thought I would like the color. It is Autumn Red (Caron Simply Soft) and it is machine-washable which = college-student friendly and it is really soft.

Anyways, this weekend went by way too fast. I had so much fun and I am so relaxed. Sunshine is like the best host ever (Thanks again for everything!!!). Sniff sniff, I wish we lived a tad bit closer together, but at least my mighty Subaru gets fantastic gas mileage. There is also a major aura of productivity at his house. I always finish tons of UFOs and I get tedious homework done faster there for some reason.

I am like seriously tired. I think my inability to sit still has finally caught up with me. So i am going to dive under my bazillion denim quilts on my bed and dream about piles of yarn. LOL!!!
