A post!

No, really.

I've been holding off on posting because I wanted to show you my vest-- my first finished garment, made for me, made by me, altered for me, altered by the seat of my pants me. But while it is finished (yea, even unto all the freakin' ends woven in) (okay, maybe it's not blocked) and I wore it today, I don't have a good picture of it. Look! A puppy!

Ha. Thought that would do the trick.

Tomorrow is Wednesday, which means KnitWits, which means that I can wind some skeins into some balls and cast on for something else. Juno? What Juno? Look! Another puppy!

There are lots more where these came from. Don't even think about mentioning anything else that may or may not be currently occupying needlespace. Laminaria, here I come. Pale blue alpaca? Merino, the colourway of which is vaguely reminiscent of mustard? We shall see.

Last weekend was so busy I don't even know what all I did. Friday evening I saw Kate Bornstein perform. I thought it was really good, and I'm not even really her target audience. And we got get out of hell free cards! Saturday I shuttled Japanese students (les étudiants de la langue) to Glenside and back-- boy, the things I've forgotten how to say in that language. Saturday evening there was a contra at Bryn Mawr (Harper's first!). Due to some overenthusiastic balancing of rings my right knee felt a little wonky, but my ACL (or whatever is in there) is young and resilient, so I was mostly back to normal for the three-hour Balinese dance rehearsal on Sunday. Whew.

Next time: Spinning! Geekery! Spinning geekery! But first, the news proof of spring:
