Sleepy Sunday

I've been up for hours but for some reason I can't wake up. I've had several cups of coffee and I'm starting to think it's allergies. I hate to break out the Zyrtec 'cause it knocks me out by 5, but all the other allergy meds make my heart race and give me insomnia. I keep telling myself I'm not an allergy sufferer, but myself isn't listening. She knows better. Time for a big glass of iced tea.

I finished my second Booga Bag, and this one turned out better than the first.

The colors are amazing, and remind me of a pink-streaked sunset sky over rippling blue water. This bag is much firmer than the first because of the way I felted it. I read somewhere that yarns like Kureyon felt firmer if you periodically dunk them in ice-water. So I felted for 15 minutes, then dunked in ice-water, then put it back in the hot water of the washer. It only took 45 minutes this way as opposed to the 65 minutes I felted my other Booga, and this one is much firmer. LOVE the way it turned out!

I also made a sock/cozy for Annabelle. This was a spur of the moment thing after the belt clip on my iSkin broke and she went crashing to the driveway. I used the neon purple acrylic I had left over from my Hallowig (which I have not shown you but will, when the time is right. he-he).

I'm still waiting to hear from iSkin on whether they will replace the clip for free.

And while we're talking knitting, here's where I am on my Kureyon Cardi.

One ball down, 7 or 8 to go!

While I'm telling all, I might as well share my new addiction - these sweet, spicy, golden little nuggets of joy.

And the best part is, the boys don't like them so they are mine! All mine!!! Mwahahahaha!!!!! oh.
