I went to the school today to talk to my academic advisor and the financial aid people etc. I now have a degree plan for a BS in history. Well...actually the full title is Bachelor of Science in History with Teacher Certification Degree Plan (Social Studies Teaching Field). whew. I am also regestered for my fall classes.
They are ....
Intro to American Government
World Geography
Grammar and Composition II
and
Critical Thinking
Luckily a bunch of my stuff from my previous college transferred over so I don't have to take stuff over again!! I'm full up on my science electives so I'm good to go there! I have a couple of forms to mail to the financial aid people and then I'll be done til school starts in August. Yippee....
I took my T3 with me and my dads sock with me but managed to get NO knitting done. *grumbles* I'll go knit some more later. I'm not used to getting up and out as early as I did today and I'm sleepy and have a headache. *pouts*

DONE!!
I finshed the cloverleaf socks last night
I really like this pattern...except that It works up so small. I did a cast on of 42 stiches on size two needles and they just about fit my two year old. (They are made for a 4 year old girl with a tiny foot)
I'd like to try some for myself...just not sure what to cast on for that. I'll mess around with it and see what happens.

No pictures today
I worked on the Cloverleaf socks and I'm through the heel and working on the foot. (I need the needles for the mini sock exchange LOL!!)
I have been spinning alot also. I've spun about 1 oz of the green stuff pictured in the previous post (its Merino, Lambs wool, silk and anjelica) and a bunch of some wool that I have no idea what kind it is. (I got it off of ebay ages ago and I don't remember now what it was) I think it was a pound of stuff and its all dyed different fall-ish colors. My mom gave me three balls of fun fur. She was going to crochet it but didn't like messing with it. Maybe I'll try to make more scarves to sell.
I need to work on my cardweaving but everytime I do....my wrists kill me after only a few turns. I can knit and/or crochet all day long and no problems...but try to turn those cards..OUCH!!
I really can't wait for the T3 knitalong to start. I think it's going to be fun. I've never made a sweater so I'm hoping I don't screw it up royally. (I started on it before I found the knitalong and have about 4 inches done..but I stopped so I wouldn't get too far ahead)
My sister loaned/gave me her bread maker and I made bread tonight. mmmmmmm I made that sweet Hawaiian bread. mmmmm It was great. I can see it now...I'm gonna get huge making loaves of bread every day. LOL (not that I'm not already huge)
If you haven't seen THIS you MUST go look. Read it all the way through!
G'nite!

More sock goodness.
I finished this sock last nite for my dad.
It is Lion Brand Magic Stripe. As my dad is rather thin and doesn't have big feet. I just use the same pattern that I use for my socks...and just made the foot longer.
Does it look out of proportion to you??
I cast on for the second one last night and I am a few rows into the cuff. I am wearing my broadripple socks today. I love these socks. I think I am going to make some more fixation socks soon. (as soon as I can get the yarn *grin*)
I'm about 1/2 way through with my Critter Knitters blanket. Seems like stuff like that just doesn't hold my interest like socks and other things. Guess maybe if I did something besides garter stitch it wouldn't be boring huh??
Today is "take the two oldest to the dentist day" Anyone want to come take my place????? Oh well...maybe I'll get some knitting done in the waiting room.
