I fell down the rabbit hole yesterday when the copy of Crochet Me I borrowed from the library decided it was buning a hole in my backpack. So, after work I walked to Windsor Button and picked up the most affordable yarn I could to make the Icelandic Turtleneck (turns out that yarn is Berroco Comfort Baby). I bought what I needed for the sweater and then 3 skeins of the Tahki Cotton Classic for the potholder swap. I'm hoping to narrow down what I want to do for the potholder swap in the spaces between shows.
Of course, this means I have started two new projects in as many weeks and will probably start another one in my copious free time this weekend. I really like how Delphine is coming out, but I didn't bring it with me yesterday and my stitchy fingers went right back to stash land. Ignoring an imminent move, I'm apparently not bright enough to realize that I need to buy less stuff. Whoops!
Complaints Time (you might want to just move along)
I'm tired and cranky despite the happiness of the stash, though I know it is a fleeting pain. My back is covered with makeup I can't quite wash off, which is good for the show because it makes my prep less. Of course, it makes my back itchy. Less the tattoo goop and morethat I can't get it all off. I love doing shows, but the lack of sleep turns me into a muddle-minded mess. Thank goodness I can sleep in a bit in the morning, so I can regain some perspective!
