Finished the Tiny Vessels gauntlets the other day. Gauntlets, mitts, fingerless gloves, whatever the hell you want to call them, they're DONE. Mighty fun, eh? This pattern and my AP English class made me realize something: I don't want to be a writer. Not a bit. I want to knit, write patterns, and open up a yarn shop.
Started on my first pair of socks. Cookie A.'s Baudelaire. Super fabulous. I'm about two rounds from finishing the gusset increases, just started the day before last. No pictures yet but trust me, you'll hear about it when they're done.

Does anyone know anything about copyrights and publishing patterns? Sonya from the Tue Bou Crew wants me to have Tiny Vessels published, and I'm more worried about a copyright. Had some issues with that a few years ago with some website layouts. People stole them left and right and claimed that they designed the layouts themselves. Fun, eh?

So yeah, color work that gets tangled annoys me like nobody's business. But I'm liking the design and where it's going. Fingerless gloves, they'll be seamed later. Thought it'd be easier to work on straights with a color-block method rather than in the round. Plus, more freedom when picking up stitches for the thumb.

The TARDIS is sleeping, these gloves are giving me enough of a headache with the color blocks as it is.
Jen's Baby Blanket is moving very slowly, mainly because whenever I try and knit it, my brain tries to do more work on a simple blanket than it needs to, and ends up putting in extra YO's and then I have to knit back 108 sts to fix it. Thrilling.
I really want to start on a pair of socks, now that I have an extremely spiffy Julip Sock Bag to put it in. Now to find a pattern, already got some yarn....
Looking to start Heere Be Dragone (A.K.A. Aestheticus.) again soon, but midterms and everything else will give me a headache for the next two weeks. So that's not going to happen terribly soon.

KNO at Have You Any Wool was wonderful tonight! Got to see Sonya and the gang from Tues @ the 'Bou. Also meet up with Carin, Burtonworshiper on LJ. She wanted to learn to knit, so we sat in the Coffee Beanery before the meeting and she was working on a *perfect* 3x3 rib scarf by the time we left HYAW four hours later. I've seen newbies work for weeks and still not have remotely even gauge. And she just didn't have even gauge, she had perfect gauge after four rows, better than most knitters. Sonya had her pegged, she's a prodigy. She'll have made socks for all of her friends by the next Knitters Night Out.

First post, whoo! Anyways. I'm Sara Jane (Duh). Teen knitter, Metro-Detroit area of Michigan (Though I'd rather be in Wales.) Obsessed with Doctor Who, Knitting, Writing, aesthetics, Death Cab for Cutie and Mae.
Yep, that's about it.

Anywho. Just finished Evangeline by Michelle Szeghalmi as featured in that fancy online knitting magazine, MagKnits. Finished them last night after work, only started a day and a half before that. Wednesday I cast on, started the ribbing for the left glove. Thursday, worked an 8-hour shift and managed to finish the first glove (Lost a bit of sleep over that one.) Friday, knit the right glove but only worked four hours. (They had me on a cash register all day, hurrah! *works at a grocery store*)

This cable pattern is making me want to design one of my own. Could get into all those ideas but it'd be even more time consuming than this post is already.
Something with a Tiny Vessels/Transatlanticisim twist?

As for the current projects, Jenifer's Baby Blanket is kind of... sleeping? She's one of the front-end supervisors (FES) at work.
The top and bottom of the stuffed TARDIS are finished, along with 95% of one of the side panels.
Just cast on for a fourth Doctor Who scarf, season 16 this time.
And... bloody hell, I only have three projects going. That's frightening. I'm usually at four or five at least.
... Now, to try and remember to crochet Shawna's elephant...

G'night for now!
