Busy, busy!

Tester slots are now in full swing! I am trying to work them in around my final exams, so I am one busy girl. I am having so much fun working up the yarn everybody sent in.

In other news, I was offered a spot in the elementary education program at my university for fall; however, it looks like I need to complete a course by correspondence before it is secured. I honestly didn't think my odds of being accepted were good - the faculty interviewed 105 students for only 50 positions. I guess I dazzled them.

As a result, I may not be taking any new testers in the near future - I need to finish that class ASAP and hope that there will still be room for me.

Blocking, take two.

Here is my second attempt at blocking the newborn longies. I think it looks much better than before!

Blocking

I'm still new to knitting, and blocking is my latest foe. It seems I need to learn how to best poke and prod in order to make my work look its best! These were the Songs of Meditation longies, post-wash (1st blocking). I have since worked on the tension issues where I wove in the ends, and am working on getting new pics of the improvement.

I received this yarn in a magic yarn ball swap, and it just screamed newborn to me! Perfectly gender-neutral, this BFL from Lamar at ...a time to dye is knitting up so smoothly.
